Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: This study investigates the role of cation channel sperm associated 2 (CATSPER2) and sperm flagella 2 (SPEF2) genes in boar spermatogenesis, focusing on their association with sperm quality traits in boars. METHODS: Utilizing targeted next-generation sequencing, we identified and genotyped two polymorphisms in CATSPER2 (rs341636020G > A, rs326912346G > T) and three variants in SPEF2 (rs320839956A > G,...
