The Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia (RBZ) is a publication dedicated to the broad field of Animal Science. We publish high-quality, original scientific research that spans across diverse areas within the discipline. The scope of RBZ encompasses a wide range of topics, including aquaculture, biometeorology and animal welfare, forage crops and grasslands, animal and forage plants breeding and genetics, animal reproduction, ruminant and non-ruminant nutrition, meat science and muscle biology, precision livestock, and animal production systems and agribusiness.

Thirty-six ejaculates from three boars, equally diluted in the diluents Beltsville Thawing Solution (BTS), Modified Zorlesco (ZOR) and BTZOR (developed at Universidade Estadual de Maringá), were used to evaluate the characteristics of each ejaculate and the semen conservation period until 25% of progressive motility (PM) for each diluents. The experimental design was completely randomized blocks, blocking boar/month. The better conservation period was BTZOR (4.94±0.30 days), followed by ZOR (4.62±0.29 days) and BTS (3.27±0.30 days). Regression analyses showed a quadratic behavior […]
