abnormal sperm midpiece morphology ( J:124143 )
• the midpiece section of the flagellum is abnormally rigid and fails to contribute to flagellar bending
abnormal sperm mitochondrial sheath morphology ( J:124143 )
• sperm mitochondrial sheath exhibits abnormal electron density
abnormal sperm motility ( J:124143 )
• mice have a lower percentage of motile sperm than in wild-type mice
• sperm swim in slow circles, exhibit slow swimming velocities and fail to make forward progress
decreased litter size ( J:124143 )
• some males produce small litters
reduced male fertility ( J:124143 )
• over a long period of time 53% of males can sire litters
