REVIEW ARTICLE: Mechanism of Prolonged Sperm Storage and Sperm Survivability in Hen Oviduct: A Review

6 Nov 2008

Abstract excerpt

A unique property of the avian oviduct is to store sperm for a prolonged period. The sperm storage tubules (SST) are located in the utero-vaginal junction of the oviduct, where sperm can be stored and survived for a few weeks after insemination or natural mating. The immune system in the oviduct is essential to prevent tissue infection by various microorganisms, and it may also affect the fate and survivability...
