چکیده

Reproductive obstacles have led scientists to develop novel techniques/technologies for artificial reproduction. We aimed to investigate the possibility of propagating zebrafish females using sperm ovarian lavage with and without presence of male stimulus. This experiment consisted of several treatments: traditional spawning approaches with females and wild-type males (AB♀ × AB♂); no males present with non-manipulated females (AB♀); no males present with females inseminated with NaCl into ovarian lobes [AB♀(inj.NaCl)]; no males present with females inseminated with sperm from transgenic males into ovarian lobes [AB♀(inj.Tg♂)]; non-manipulated females kept separately from wild-type males (AB♀|AB♂); females kept separately from wild-type males and inseminated with NaCl into ovarian lobes [AB♀(inj.NaCl)|AB♂]; and females kept separately from wild-type males and inseminated with sperm from transgenic males into ovarian lobes [AB♀(inj.Tg♂)|AB♂]. There were no released eggs in both negative control treatments (AB♀ and AB♀|AB♂). Egg production increased (ranged from 0 to 28.5 eggs/female) when females were injected in the presence [AB♀ (inj.NaCl) |AB♂] or absence of male stimulus [AB♀ (inj.NaCl) and (AB♀(inj.Tg♂)]. A further increase in egg production [relative to AB♀, AB♀ (inj.NaCl), and AB♀|AB♂] was detected when females were inseminated with pooled sperm from transgenic males in the presence of male stimulus [AB♀(inj.Tg♂)|AB♂; ranged from 2.5 to 55 eggs/female] or when using traditional spawning approaches (AB♀ × AB♂; ranged from 25 to 131 eggs/female). Females inseminated with sperm produced embryos, although no differences were detected when females were inseminated with pooled sperm from transgenic males in presence (11.8 ± 16.3%) or absence (average = 12.6 ± 9.2%) of male stimulus. Traditional spawning approaches produced the most eggs (81.2 ± 42.3 per female) and highest fertilization rate (81.3 ± 10.4).
