Caption

Cauda epididymal sperm from Del(8Defb1-Defb13)1Jrdo/Del(8Defb1-Defb13)1Jrdo (-/-) show an increased number of detached heads compared to wild-types (+/+). Photomicrographs represented are in phase-contrast microscopy at original magnification of X40. Fragility of the mutant vs wild-type derived sperm isolated from cauda was determined by dropping the suspensions onto a glass slide and analysing the number of detached heads (arrowheads). A total of 200 sperm were analysed for each slide, which represented one animal. An average of 3 pairs was analysed (mean +/- SD; n = 3). p = 0.048
