Description
Breeding buffalo in Indonesia depends on semen that survives freezing well, and breeds may differ in that trait. Sigit Bintara and co-authors studied three local breeds in 2025, Silangit, Toraja, and Sapala. They measured thawed sperm quality with computer tools and profiled the small molecules in the semen with high-resolution lab methods.
Silangit bulls showed higher sperm viability and membrane integrity, while the other breeds had fewer abnormal sperm shapes. Each breed also carried its own pair of marker molecules, tied to energy use, membrane repair, or defense against cell damage. Tests confirmed the markers could sort the breeds. The authors say such markers could guide fertility prediction and selective breeding.
