17 Oct 2022
Abstract excerpt
In this review, we discuss the physiology of mitochondrial function in sperm using a comparative species approach. Mitochondria impart the ability for sperm from internal fertilizing species to attain individual motility and the ability to navigate the female reproductive tract to the site of fertilization.
