Effect of mating method, sex and birth type on growth of lambs

Abstract

Estrus synchronization methods was use to control the reproductive traits of sheep, as well as bringing more females at the same stage of estrus and ovulation. According to the points mentioned above, the aim of the present study was to investigate and compare mating method and influence of fixed factors on birth and weaning weight of lambs. Statistical analysis showed that exist difference in the body weights between genotypes of lambs. In the first group, the difference in weight of lambs at birth, regardless of mating method was not significant (P> 0.05), while in the second group, the difference was slightly significant (P (lt) 0.05). As for the birth type, sex and within the same genotype, there was a statistical significance (P (lt) 0.05) between singles obtained naturally, between the triplets obtained naturally and between triplets received hormonal method. All the differences between body weight at 30 days (mating method, sex and birth type under the same genotype) were statistically significant (P (lt) 0.05).The determined differences in the body weights at 60 days (sex, mating method and type of birth under the same genotype) were statistically significant (P (lt) 0.05). The results showed that the differences (mating method, sex and type of birth under the same genotype) were statistically significant (P (lt) 0.05), except in between body weight at 90 days in twins among two genotypes obtained by natural method, which were not statistically significant (P> 0.05).

Metod sinhronizacije estrusa se koristi da kontroliše reproduktivne osobine ovaca. Cilj ovog rada bio je da se ispita i uporedi način parenja i uticaj osnovnih fiksnih faktora na masu jagnjadi. Statistička analiza je pokazala da je razlika telesne mase između grupa jagnjadi na rođenju bila statistički značajna. U prvoj grupi, razlika u masi jagnjadi na rođenju, zavisno od načina oplodnje nije bila značajna (P> 0,05), dok je u drugoj grupi, razlika statistički značajna (P (lt) 0,05). Što se tiče tipa rođenja, a u okviru istog genotipa, postoji statistička značajnost (P (lt) 0,05) između jedinaca dobijenih prirodno, između prirodno dobijenih trojki i između trojke dobijenih hormonskim metodom. Sve razlike između masa tela muških grla sa 30 dana (načinu oplodnje, tipa rođenja i u okviru istog genotipa) su statistički značajne (P (lt) 0,05). Utvrđene razlike u telesnoj masi sa 60 dana su takođe statistički značajne (P (lt) 0,05). Rezultati su pokazali da su razlike između genotipova pod uticajem fiksnih faktora statistički značajne (P (lt) 0,05), osim između telesne mase sa 90 dana kod blizanaca (P> 0,05).
