Semen characteristics of the swamp buffalo (bubalus bubalis)

The semen characteristics were studied in 182 ejaculates collected with a bovine artificial vagina from five swamp buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) bulls. The mean values were: volume, 2.9 ml; general motility, 70.7%;live (unstained) sperm, 86.5%;abnormal sperm, 10.3%;intact acrosomes, 82.4%;sperm concentr...
