Abstract
This study's goal was to use the DNA sequence techniques to find new mutations in the follicle-stimulating hormone receptor exon 10 (FSHR) in Egyptian buffalo bulls with different sperm motility. A total of 50 Egyptian buffalo bulls aged 3–4 years old, at Kafr El-Sheikh Governorate (breeding station of Mahallet Mousa), Egypt were investigated. The bulls were divided into two groups according to spermatozoa motility: the first group of high sperm motility (> 60%, n = 32) and the second group of low sperm motility (< 60%, n = 18). Blood samples were collected to obtain genomic deoxyribonucleic acid, and to perform polymerase chain reaction with an annealing temperature of 57 °C to amplify 306 bp of the FSHR exon 10 gene. The results showed that all the investigated buffalo bulls were monomorphic and had the same genotype. We may conclude that there no different variants of FSHR gene associated with different sperm motility, therefore we need to study more genes in relation to sperm motility.
