Genetic and Environmental Architecture of Ram Fertility Traits: A Review.

Genes - 9 Feb 2026

Zheng Kaiyue, Sinhalage Krishani, Polizel Guilherme Henrique Gebim, Cánovas Ángela

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Ram fertility is essential for sheep production, influenced by genetic, physiological, behavioral, and environmental factors. This narrative review synthesizes findings from over 190 peer-reviewed publications to evaluate the phenotypic indicators, genetic architecture, molecular candidates, and management conditions influencing testicular development, semen quality, and reproductive...
