| dc.description.abstract | Buffalo are an economically important source for meat and milk production, especially in Brazil. However, important aspects of their biology remain unknown thus far. Herein, we describe the biometric testicular parameters analyzed were scrotal circumference (SC), testicular weight (TW), testicular length (TL), testicular width (TWD), testicular thickness (TT) and testicular circumference (TC). Our data indicate strong correlations between SC, age and body weight, and additional significant relationships were identified between body weight, age and other testicular parameters. Thus, these parameters are suitable indicators when selecting bulls for breeding purposes. | en |
