Identification of a sperm cell attribute responsible for subfertility of roosters homozygous for the rose comb allele.

Biology of reproduction - 1 Jan 1996

McLean D J, Froman D P

Abstract excerpt

Fertility, sperm metabolism, sperm filling of oviductal sperm storage tubules (SST), and sperm motility were compared in subfertile roosters homozygous for the rose comb allele (R/R) and fertile controls (r/r or R/r males). As expected, fertility of R/R males was less than that of controls (p < 0.0001). The metabolic rate of spermatozoa from R/R males was also lower than that of controls (p < 0.05). Likewise,...
