Abstract excerpt

Several genes are associated with the multiple morphological abnormalities of the sperm flagella (MMAF) syndrome, including QRICH2, CFAP43, CFAP44, CFAP69, CCDC39, and AKAP4 genes. Although previous work has shown that these genes are significantly associated with male reproductive traits in certain species, it is not yet known whether they are associated with reproductive traits in the goat. In this study, we...
