Summary
Effects of environmental heat stress on male fertility in livestock species. This project aims to address the role of ambient heat stress in animal fertility by examining its mechanisms and developing treatments to alleviate its effects. Using an interdisciplinary approach that brings together veterinary sciences, reproductive biology, biochemistry and bioinformatics, the project expects to improve our understanding of how high environmental temperatures lead to reduced fertility, pregnancy loss ....Effects of environmental heat stress on male fertility in livestock species. This project aims to address the role of ambient heat stress in animal fertility by examining its mechanisms and developing treatments to alleviate its effects. Using an interdisciplinary approach that brings together veterinary sciences, reproductive biology, biochemistry and bioinformatics, the project expects to improve our understanding of how high environmental temperatures lead to reduced fertility, pregnancy loss and compromised inheritance in large animals, and to develop effective interventions. The resulting benefits include enhanced productivity and resilience of Australia’s livestock industries in the face of a changing climate.
