The two embodiments are the buffalo seed bull sperm antifreeze molecular marker breeding method which mainly comprises the steps of collecting semen samples, extracting DNA, screening antifreeze related genes, designing and synthesizing molecular markers, breeding seed bull individuals, verifying and evaluating breeding results. However, in the implementation process, different strategies and technologies may be adopted according to actual situations.
For example, in the step of collecting semen samples, the first embodiment collects samples from buffalo species bulls of different geographical locations and breeds, and the second embodiment collects samples from species bulls of different ages and different fertility. Both strategies can ensure diversity and representativeness of the sample, but the choice of which strategy may depend on the specific objective of the study and the available resources.
