Candidate genes follicle stimulation hormone receptor (FSHR), inhibin alpha (INHA), inhibin bata A (INHBA) and prolactin (PRL) were investigated for their association with sperm quality traits of semen volume per ejaculate (VOL), sperm concentration (SCON), motility (MOT), sperm motility in frozen semen (FMOT), acrosome integrity rate (AIR) and abnormal sperm rate (ASR) in a total of 123 normal mature Holstein...
