There is provided a method for controlling a flow of sperms in a uterine tube formed by a uterine tube wall of a patient. The method comprises gently constricting (i.e., without substantially hampering the blood circulation in the uterine tube wall) at least one portion of the uterine tube wall to influence the flow of sperms in the uterine tube, and stimulating the constricted wall portion to cause contraction of the uterine tube wall portion to further influence the flow of sperms in the uterine tube. The method can be used for restricting or stopping the flow of sperms in the uterine tube, or for actively moving the fluid in the uterine tube, with a low risk of injuring the uterine tube.

The invention discloses an animal sex control method based on Rbmy gene editing and application. The method controls animal sex by using CRISPR/Cas9 system to specifically cut Rbmy gene on Y chromosome. Rbmy gene encodes a germ cell specific nucleoprotein, this protein is an important factor related to spermatogenesis, and by cutting Rbmy gene, it is possible to deactivate Rbmy gene, thus Y sperm or fertilized ovum with Y sperm is deactivated and cannot develop into a normal embryo, birth ratio of female animals is finally increased and sex control is achieved. Therefore, sex ratio of animal offspring can be controlled through the method so that the ratio of female animals with better economic value is increased and production efficiency and economic effect are greatly improved.

The invention discloses a shallow sea oyster single body cultivation method. The method comprises the following steps of sperm and egg obtaining, fertilization, incubation, baby oyster cultivation, young oyster collection, middle cultivation of young oyster seeds in a sea area, separation of the young oysters from matrixes, and placing of oyster single bodies in baskets and cultivation. According to current oyster single body cultivation, the young oyster single bodies cultivated in a room are adopted and directly placed in the sea area for cultivation, as the young oysters and cultivation cage screens are small, a cultivation cage is blocked by float sludge in the sea area easily, the young oysters are mutually piled up easily and grow slowly, and the survival rate is low. The method solves the problems that the existing oyster single body cultivation effect is poor, the oysters grow slowly, and the survival rate is low. The method is easy and convenient to carry out, and high in operability and survival rate, and the oyster single bodies grow fast.
