This study examines the influence of administering testosterone at the end of the mating season, on the responses (morphometric and functional) of ram and buck sperm to freezing-thawing. Five rams were administered 25 mg testosterone propionate (TP) subcutaneously in 2 mL of olive oil twice per week (Monday and Thursday) from October 1 to 31; 5 bucks received exactly the same treatment but from November 1 to 30. Control groups were administered 2 mL of olive oil without TP twice per week over the same period. In the rams, no significant differences were seen in plasma testosterone between the treated and control groups during treatment (0.8 ± 0.2 ng/mL vs 1.5 ± 0.5 ng/mL; P > 0.05). Significant differences were seen in this respect, however, in the bucks (4.3 ± 0.8 ng/mL and 6.9 ± 0.9 ng/mL; P < 0.05). In the rams, TP treatment increased (P < 0.05) the straight-line velocity (VSL), linearity (LIN), straightness (STR) and wobble (WOB) values in fresh sperm samples. Similarly, in the frozen-thawed samples, TP treatment increased the VSL, average path velocity (VAP), LIN and WOB values (P < 0.05) compared with controls. In the bucks, treatment with TP had no effect on any measured variable in fresh sperm; frozen-thawed sperm, however, returned greater VSL, LIN, STR, and WOB values (P < 0.05) than did controls. In the rams, treatment with TP led to a reduction in all fresh sperm head morphometric variables (P < 0.05). Freezing-thawing further reduced (P < 0.05) all morphometric variables in both the control and treated groups. In the bucks, treatment with TP increased (P < 0.05) the length, area, and perimeter of fresh sperm cells, unlike that seen in ram sperm. Compared with fresh sperm, freezing-thawing led to reduced (P < 0.05) morphometric variables in both the control and treated bucks, except for the sperm head width, which in the controls remained unchanged. In conclusion, TP treatment at the end of the mating season affected fresh sperm quality, in both Spanish Merino rams and Murciano-Granadina bucks, in a species-specific manner, but improved the sperm kinetic variables after freezing-thawing in both species, apparently improving sperm cryoresistance. Treatment with TP affects the dimensions of the sperm head in a species-specific manner. This research was supported by MINECO grants AGL2014–52081-R and AGL2017–85753-R.
