摘要
为了提供具有清楚的遗传学和医学背景的实验用恒河猴,在控制营养和环境的条件下,比较了三种不同繁殖方法(后宫式、定期配对式和固定配对式)的生殖率,同时研究了后宫式繁殖群的雌雄数量配比、等级地位及雌猴年龄等因素与生殖率的关系,并提出了能较全面地衡量种群饲养管理水平的“繁殖增长率”的计算方法。五年中共选用628只雌猴进行试验,年均生殖率为72.2％。
In order to provide a large scale of laboratory rhesus monkeys which have clear genetic and madical backgrounds, standard food and controlled environment, three breeding systems were carried out in National Laboratory Primate Centre of China, Xishuangbanna, Yunnan during 1984-1988. The study of 628 female breeders indicated that the average annual mortility rate of females was 4.7%, average annual conception rate was 83.2%, average annual reproduction rate was 72.2%. The results showed that, in Harem breeding colony, fertility was affected by female social rank and age. There were not significant difference in reproduction for male/female rate within 1/4-16. The major cause of death was trauma, following by cntcropathies. 56.2% of reproductive growth rate was gained in this colony.
