Reduced glucose transport in sperm from roosters (Gallus domesticus) with heritable subfertility.

Biology of reproduction - 1 Oct 1997

Abstract excerpt

Roosters homozygous for the rose comb allele (R/R) are subfertile. In previous research, these subfertile roosters were characterized by an in vitro sperm penetration assay as having limited sperm motility. The objectives in the present study were to characterize sperm motility by computer-assisted sperm motion analysis and to account for a mechanism underlying poor sperm motility. Percentages of motile sperm...
