Abstract

The purpose of this study is to produce wanted sex progeny of genetically confined White Hanwoo (albinism) with preselected sex sperm. One bull of White Hanwoo was chosen for semen donor and X sperm was sorted by MoFlo XDP cell sorter. To compare the pregnancy and birth rates, KPN straw was used as control, total number of unsorted sperm was $20{\times}10^6/straw$. Sexed X frozen semen with $20{\times}10^6$ cells or $4{\times}10^6$ cells per straw were in seminated twice on Hanwoo heifers. The abnormality of the sexed X semen was $24.9{\pm}7.31%$ and distal reflex abnormality of mid piece was significantly (p<0.05) higher (11.7%) compared with that of KPN 768 (5.6%). There were no differences on the pregnancy and birth rates between $2{\times}10^6$ cells or $4{\times}10^6$ cells of X-sperm but KPN semen showed significant differences (p<0.05). The pregnancy rates of KPN 768, $2{\times}10^6$ cells and $4{\times}10^6$ cells X-sperm of White Hanwoo cattle were 85.0%, 26.3% and 50%. The birth rates were 80.0%, 15.8% and 21.4%, respectively. The female offspring rates of KPN 768, $2{\times}10^6$ cells and $4{\times}10^6$ cells X-sperm of White Hanwoo cattle were 43.8%, 100% and 100% (p<0.05). These results indicated that sex sorted White Hanwoo could be used for the production of wanted progeny with $2{\times}10^6$ cells/straw for AI. To increase the efficiency of calf production, the sperm number of sex sorted semen will be optimized for sex selection of White Hanwoo progeny.

본 연구는 백한우 개체 1두에서 성판별된 정자를 제조하고 원하는 성을 가진 후대를 생산하고자 인공수정을 실시하였다. 채정이 가능한 백한우 종모우 1두를 선발하고, 정자 성 분리 전용 유세포 분리기인 MoFlo XDP기기로 성분리 동결정액을 생산하였다. 성분리 X 정자의 농도에 따른 임신율과 출산율을 비교하기 위하여 대조군으로서 KPN 768정액을 이용하였으며 그 총 정자수는 $20{\times}10^6$로 추정되었다. 실험군으로서 성 판별된 백한우 X 정자를 이용하였으며, 정자수 $2{\times}10^6/straw$$4{\times}10^6/straw$를 처녀우 한우에 2회 인공수정하였다. 백한우의 정액 기형도는 $24.9{\pm}7.31%$로 관찰되었으며, 중편부 반전 정자기형이 약간 높은 정자로 검사되었다(11.7%). 성판별된 백한우 X-정자수가 $2{\times}10^6/straw$$4{\times}10^6/straw$를 인공 수정할 때 실험군에서 임신율의 차이는 없었으며, 보증씨수소 정자를 이용한 대조군의 경우, 임신율이 유의적으로 높게 나타났다(p<0.05). 대조군 KPN 768와 실험군 $2{\times}10^6/straw$ 정자와 $4{\times}10^6/straw$ 정자 처리군에서 임신율은 각각 85.0%, 26.3% 및 50 %로 관찰되었다. 산자 생산율은 각각 80.0%, 15.8% 및 21.4% 로 관찰되었고, 암컷 출현율은 각각 43.8%, 100% 및 100%로 조사되었다. 이러한 결과는 백한우 성 판별된 정자로 원하는 성을 가진 후대 생산이 가능함을 보여주고 있으며, 성 판별된 정자를 활용하여 원하는 성을 가진 백한우 후대를 생산하는데 최적화된 정자수의 대한 기본 자료를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
