The mammalian Y chromosome gene families in the ampliconic region are expressed predominantly or exclusively in the testis, and their copy number variations (CNV) are significantly associated with male reproductive traits, suggesting they have important roles in spermatogenesis and testicular development. ZNF280AY (zinc finger protein 280A, Y-linked) is a member of the zinc finger protein family and has been identified as a bovid-specific Y-chromosome gene. The current study applied a reliable quantitative real-time PCR method to estimate the CNV of ZNF280AY in 715 bulls across 21 cattle breeds and to further investigate the association of the CNV of ZNF280AY with bull reproductive traits and ZNF280AY mRNA expression levels in adult testis. The results revealed that the median copy number of ZNF280AY was 47, and the copy number varied from 11 to 154, showing significant CNV between and within the investigated cattle breeds. In addition, all 715 bulls were classified into Y1, Y2, and Y3 lineage groups based on a rapid genotyping method described previously. Pairwise comparisons indicated that bulls belonging to the Y1 lineage had a significantly lower median copy number (40) than bulls belonging to the Y2 (52) and Y3 lineages (57). Association analysis revealed that the CNV of ZNF280AY was correlated negatively with the percentage of normal sperm and sperm concentration in Holstein bulls, whereas no significant correlation was observed with ejaculation volume, total sperm count, sperm motility, postthaw motility (PTM), and scrotal circumference in Holstein and Simmental bulls. Furthermore, no correlation was observed between ZNF280AY copy number and ZNF280AY mRNA expression levels in the testis. The current study suggests that the CNV of the ZNF280AY gene family is associated with male reproductive traits and may serve as a valuable marker for early bull fertility selection in Holstein breeding programs.
