Since there are no data regarding the seminal parameters of this breed, this work was performed to evaluate seminal parameters of freshly ejaculated semen. A total of three healthy breeding Bachaur bulls aged 2.5\u20135\u2009years were selected for the study which were maintained under identical managemental conditions. Semen parameters of these bulls were studied across 10 ejaculates. The average scrotal circumference and testicular weight of the three bulls were 27.78\u2009\u00b1\u20091.2\u2009cm and 400.67\u2009\u00b1\u200926.6\u2009g, respectively. The average overall volume (mL), pH, concentration (million\/mL), liveability (%), abnormality (%), HOST (%) and acrosome integrity (%) were 2.20\u2009\u00b1\u20090.19, 6.86\u2009\u00b1\u20090.06, 1245.60\u2009\u00b1\u200923.49, 85.09\u2009\u00b1\u20090.91, 4.13\u2009\u00b1\u20090.06, 81.16\u2009\u00b1\u20091.18 and 83.54\u2009\u00b1\u20091.32, respectively. The average overall mass motility of three Bachaur bulls was 3.57\u2009\u00b1\u20090.06 in 0\u20135 scale and individual motility averaged 84.78\u2009\u00b1\u20091.70 per cent. The volume of ejaculates in Bachaur bull seemed to be lower as compared to other exotic and Indian breeds. However, the semen parameters with regard to mass motility, liveability, abnormalities, hypo\u2010osmotic swelling test (HOST) and acrosomal integrity seemed similar to other exotic and Indian breeds.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/rda.14666","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,11]],"date-time":"2024-07-11T09:04:53Z","timestamp":1720688693000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Characteristics of Bachaur bull semen"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"59","author":[{"given":"C.
