The effects of a cottonseed meal diet containing high levels of free gossypol on hematological traits, including erythrocyte osmotic fragility and semen characteristics, were examined during an 11-week period. Eigh Brahman bulls were randomly assigned to 1 of 2 groups. The control group (n=4) was fed a mixture of soybean meal and corn. The treated group (n=4) was fed a mixture of cottonseed meal and corn. Both groups were allowed hay free choice. The treated group consumed 8.2 g of free gossypol per bull per day. Th percentage of normal spermatozoa was lower (P<0.01) in the treated than in the control group from Weeks 5 (49+-9.8 vs 83+-3.2%), which was primarily influenced by changes in mid piece morphology in the treated bulls. Erythrocyte osmotic fragility was higher (P<0.001) in the treated than in the control group over the entire study period, althrought group values diverged more acutely from Week 7 of treatment. Sperm motility was lower (P=0.04) in treated bulls than in control bulls at Week 9 (52+-9.8 vs 82+-6.2%). These data suggested that concurrent discernable changes in bull erythrocyte osmotic fragility and in semen characteristics can occur following commencement of a diet containing 8.2g of free gossypol per day. |
