Description

Boar odor composition and boar odor agent and preparation method and application thereof

[0001] Cross-reference to related disclosures

[0002] The present disclosure claims priority to Chinese Patent 2024111064157 entitled "Boar odor composition and boar odor agent and preparation method and application thereof" filed on August 13, 2024, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0003] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of breeding, and in particular to a boar odor composition and boar odor agent and preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0004] In the pig industry, estrus management of sows is a key link to improve reproductive efficiency. Traditionally, breeders rely on live boars to induce estrus, but this method has the disadvantages of high cost and complex management. Therefore, various boar odor products have been developed on the market to simulate the odor characteristics of boars to induce sows to estrus. However, these products have varying effects in practical applications, and generally have low estrus induction rates and unstable estrus performance. In particular, in promoting the estrus initiation of replacement gilts and checking estrus for breeding, the effect is far inferior to that of live boars.

[0005] O-aminophenylacetonitrile and benzylideneacetone are two organic compounds with special odor, although they are often mentioned as one of the sources of pork odor, but so far there is no research to directly prove that they are the sex pheromone of sows. However, their potential role in odor composition cannot be ignored, especially when they work synergistically with other sex pheromones, they may exhibit new functions to promote sow estrus.

[0075] Boar odor agents provided in Examples 1 to 7 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5 of Table 1

[0076] Note: " / " in Table 1 means that the component is not included.

[0077] Test Example 1

[0078] The present test example tests the boar odor agents provided in Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5 on replacement gilts.

[0079] Select 300 back-up sows with similar age, weight and good health, and randomly divide them into 10 groups, 30 sows in each group. Spray each boar odor agent on the back-up sows respectively. From the age of 140 days of the back-up sows, spray 1 mL each time in the morning and evening every day, continuously for 30 days until the age of 170 days of the back-up sows, and continuously observe and record the estrus performance until the age of 200 days. Ensure that the spraying equipment used in each group is consistent to exclude the influence of equipment differences on the test results.

[0080] Select healthy and sexually active live boars for exposure, and place the back-up sows in an environment where they can contact the live boars but cannot directly mate, simulating the natural conditions of boar-induced estrus as a control group.

[0081] From the start date of the test (the age of 140 days of the back-up sows), observe the estrus performance in the morning and evening every day, and record the following indicators: the number of sows with swollen vulva, the number of sows that stand still when pressed on the back (i.e. sows that remain still when stimulated by pressing on the back), and the number of sows with erect ears (as an auxiliary indicator of estrus excitement). At the same time, record the age of the first estrus of each sow, and calculate the average age of the first estrus of each group. The results are shown in Table 2.

[0082] Table 2 Estrus performance of back-up sows

[0083] As can be seen from the results in Table 2, comparing the control group and Examples 1-4, the estrus initiation speed and estrus performance of the back-up sows in Examples 1-4 are relatively close to those of the back-up sows in the control group, with little difference, indicating that the effect of the boar odor agent provided by the present disclosure on promoting the estrus initiation speed and estrus performance of back-up sows is close to the effect of live boar-induced estrus.

[0084] Comparing Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-5, the estrus initiation speed of the back-up sows in Examples 1-4 is faster, and the number of estrus performance is more, indicating that the boar odor agent provided by the present disclosure, by cooperating at least one of oestradiol-17-one, oestradiol-17-ol with at least one of oestrone, oestriol in the presence of at least one of o-aminophenylaceton and benzylideneacetone, can effectively improve the estrus initiation speed and estrus performance of back-up sows.

[0085] Test Example 2

[0086] In this test example, the effect of the boar odor agent provided in Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-5 on the reproductive capacity of multiparous sows is tested.

[0087] 180 healthy and well-bred multiparous sows were randomly divided into 9 groups, 20 sows in each group. Each boar odorant was used to spray the nose of the multiparous sows. The sows were sprayed once in the morning and evening from the first day after weaning, 1 mL each time, until the standing reflex appeared, and then insemination was performed immediately. B-ultrasound was used to detect the pregnancy 28 days after insemination.

[0088] Healthy and sexually active live boars were selected for exposure. The multiparous sows were placed in an environment where they could contact the live boars but could not directly mate, simulating the natural conditions of boar-induced estrus, and insemination was performed immediately when the standing reflex appeared as the control group.

[0089] From the weaning of the sows until the farrowing period, the following indicators were observed and recorded: weaning to estrus interval, number of estrus, breeding pregnancy rate (%) = number of successfully pregnant sows / number of sows receiving insemination x 100%, and number of litters. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0090] Table 3 Reproductive capacity of multiparous sows

[0091] As can be seen from the results in Table 3, comparing the control group and Examples 1-4, the reproductive capacity of the multiparous sows in Examples 1-4 is similar to that of the multiparous sows in the control group, with little difference, indicating that the boar odorant provided by the present disclosure has an effect on promoting the reproductive capacity of multiparous sows similar to that of live boars inducing multiparous sows.

[0092] Comparing Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-5, the weaning to estrus interval of the multiparous sows in Examples 1-4 is shorter, the breeding pregnancy rate is higher, and the number of litters is more, indicating that the boar odorant provided by the present disclosure, by coordinating at least one of o-anisaldehyde and benzylideneacetone with at least one of sterochene and sterochol, can effectively improve the reproductive capacity of multiparous sows.

[0093] Test Example 3

[0094] In this test example, the boar odorants provided in Examples 5-7 were tested on replacement gilts.

[0095] 120 replacement gilts with similar age, weight, and good health were randomly divided into 3 groups, 40 gilts in each group. Each boar odorant was used to spray the nose of the replacement gilts. From the age of 140 days, the replacement gilts were sprayed once in the morning and evening, 1 mL each time, for 30 consecutive days until the age of 170 days, and the estrus performance was observed and recorded until the age of 200 days. The spraying equipment used in each group was consistent to exclude the influence of equipment differences on the test results.

[0096] From the starting day of the test (140 days old of the replacement gilts), the estrus performance observation was carried out once in the morning and evening each day, and the following indexes were recorded: the number of gilts with vulva redness, the number of gilts standing still when pressed on the back (i.e. the gilts remaining still when stimulated by pressing on the back), and the number of gilts with both ears erect (as an auxiliary index of estrus excitement state). At the same time, the first estrus age of each gilt was recorded, and the average first estrus age of each group was calculated. The results are shown in Table 4.

[0097] Table 4 Estrus performance of replacement gilts

[0098] As can be seen from the results of Table 4, comparing Examples 5-7, with the increase of the concentrations of Component A and Component B, the replacement gilts have faster estrus initiation speed and more estrus performance. However, when the concentrations of Component A and Component B increase to a certain extent, the estrus initiation speed and estrus performance of the replacement gilts do not have significant improvement. It is shown that the boar odor provided by the present disclosure, by matching the appropriate concentration of Component A with the appropriate concentration of Component B, can effectively improve the estrus initiation speed and estrus performance of the replacement gilts.

[0099] Test Example 4

[0100] In this test example, the effects of the boar odor provided in Examples 5-7 on the reproductive capacity of the multiparous gilts were tested.

[0101] A total of 90 healthy multiparous gilts with good reproductive records were selected and randomly divided into 3 groups, 30 gilts in each group. The multiparous gilts were treated with the respective boar odor by nasal spraying. The gilts were sprayed once in the morning and evening each day from the first day after weaning, 1 mL each time, until the standing reflex appeared, then insemination was immediately performed, and the pregnancy was detected by B-ultrasound 28 days after insemination.

[0102] From the weaning of the gilts, the following indexes were observed and recorded until the farrowing period: the interval days from weaning to estrus, the number of estrus, the conception rate of breeding (%)=the number of successfully pregnant gilts / the number of gilts receiving insemination x 100%, and the number of farrowing. The results are shown in Table 5.

[0103] Table 5 Reproductive capacity of multiparous gilts

[0104] As can be seen from the results of Table 5, comparing Examples 5-7, with the increase of the concentrations of Component A and Component B, the multiparous gilts have shorter interval from weaning to estrus, more conception rate of breeding and more number of farrowing. However, when the concentrations of Component A and Component B increase to a certain extent, the reproductive capacity of the multiparous gilts does not have significant improvement. It is shown that the boar odor provided by the present disclosure, by matching the appropriate concentration of Component A with the appropriate concentration of Component B, can effectively improve the reproductive capacity of the multiparous gilts.
