Enhancing evaluation of bull fertility through multivariate analysis of sperm.

Computer-assisted sperm analysis (CASA) has become the predominant tool for assessing bull semen in AI programs. Despite such popularity CASA's ability to predict fertility has been limited, especially when emphasis is based on single motion characteristics. Our hypothesis is that numerical sets of CASA measures provide a more effective method to differentiate the potential fertilization capacity of bulls and that bulls can be clustered based on sets of CASA measures.
