Abstract
SummaryThree intensities of sexual preparation were compared with none using 9 rabbits which each furnished 2 ejaculations every second day for 38 days. The average sperm content of first ejaculations after one false mount (102.9 × 106) was 178% greater than that following no sexual preparation (37.0 × 106) and 3 false mounts resulted in an additional 40% increment in sperm output over one false mount. Sexual preparation also increased average sperm content of second ejaculations, although the increments were not as large as those obtained in first ejaculations. Analyses of seminal volume and total fructose content revealed that sexual preparation stimuli also affected accessory glands, but the magnitude of effect was proportionately smaller than the magnitude of the effect on epididymides. Sexual preparation also reduced the relative magnitude of the within-buck variance of total sperm output.
