Forty-week-old male broiler breeders were used in two experiments. Males were reared as recommended by the breeder, housed in individual cages, and cannulated to facilitate blood sampling. In experiment 1, blood samples were collected at 10- min intervals for 4 h commencing the day of cannulation (Day 0) and for 12 h on each of Days 1 and 2. In experiment 2, blood samples were collected at 10-min intervals for 8 h on Day 1. After centrifugation, plasma was stored at −20°C until LH, FSH (experiment 1 and 2), testosterone, and corticosterone (experiment 1) concentrations were determined by RIA. Different statistical methods used to identify hormone secretion profiles revealed a characteristic pulsatile pattern of LH and FSH in plasma. However, LH pulses were more frequent and had greater amplitude than FSH pulses. Less than 32% of the FSH pulses were associated with LH episodes. Conversely, the association between LH and testosterone pulses averaged 83% in birds with testis weight greater than 10 g. Concentrations of corticosterone tended to increase after cannulation and remained elevated for only 3–4 h. Our data indicate that LH, FSH, and testosterone secretion is pulsatile in male broiler breeders. Additionally, LH pulses are associated with testosterone episodes but not with FSH pulses. The pulsatile pattern of FSH secretion, which is unique from those of LH, in adult males suggests that FSH secretion is independently regulated in the adult male fowl.
