摘要

本研究分析了拉贡母羊的乳房测量,特别关注对照年(2022-2023)和泌乳顺序对各种乳房性状的影响。根据不同的变量,研究中拉贡母羊的数量在57到86只之间,而对照测量的数量在49到111只之间。在乳头大小和位置上观察到显著的逐年变化,随着年龄的增长,乳头的大小普遍减少。对照年份对乳房长度、宽度、深度以及乳头长度和角度均有显著影响。我们的研究结果表明,挤奶的最佳角度是45°左右。泌乳顺序(胎次)对乳房大小有显著影响,尤其是乳房深度和长度,在第三次泌乳时增加。年龄较大的母羊表现出更长的乳头和更水平的乳头位置,表明更大的乳房池。用不同方法测量的结果表明,随着年龄的增长,乳池的大小有增大的趋势。研究发现,蓄水池越大,产奶量越大,排奶速度越快。虽然哺乳顺序对池测量的影响在统计上并不显著,但“从底部”的方法被证明对评估池大小更有效。可挤奶性参数有相当大的变化,包括机器挤奶和总产奶量。乳房附着与产奶量之间的相关性是显著的,这突出了强乳房附着对有效产奶量的重要性。乳房宽度与产奶量之间的显著正相关表明,乳房越宽,产奶量越短。研究结果表明,较大的乳池,尤其是左侧的乳池,与更多的产奶量有关。随着母羊年龄的增长和哺乳的进展,乳房形态改善,促进更好的可挤奶性。这些发现为利用特定的乳房性状来选择具有更高产奶量潜力的拉贡品种母羊提供了科学依据。

Udder morphology and milk yield of Lacaune dairy sheep.

Introduction: This study analyses udder measurements in Lacaune ewes, with a particular focus on the effects of the control year (2022-2023) and lactation order on various udder traits. The number of Lacaune ewes included in the study ranged from 57 to 86 for various variables, while the number of control measurements was between 49 and 111. Significant year-on-year variations were observed in teat size and position, with teats generally decreasing in size with age. The control year had a significant impact on udder length, width, and depth, as well as teat length and angle. Our findings indicate that optimal teat angles for milking are around 45°. The order of lactation (parity) had a significant impact on udder size, particularly udder depth and length, which increased by the third lactation. The older ewes exhibited longer teats and a more horizontal teat position, indicative of larger udder cisterns. The results of the udder cistern measurements taken using different methods showed that cistern size tends to increase with age. It was found that larger cisterns correlate with higher milk yields and faster milk letdown. Although the impact of lactation order on cistern measurements was not statistically significant, the 'from the bottom' method proved more effective for assessing cistern size. There was considerable variation in the milkability parameters, including machine-milked and total milk yield. The correlation between udder attachment and milk production was significant, which highlights the importance of a strong udder attachment for efficient milk yield. A notable positive correlation between udder width and milk production indicates that wider udders yield more milk in shorter periods. The study findings indicate that larger udder cisterns, particularly on the left side, are associated with greater milk production. As ewes age and progress through lactations, udder morphology improves, facilitating better milkability. These findings provide a scientific basis for the use of specific udder traits in the selection of ewes with enhanced milk production potential for the Lacaune breed.
