The Interplay Between Trace Elements, Morphometry, and Semen Quality in Bucks During the Breeding Season. [PDF]
Vet Med SciSemen, blood serum and morphometric data were collected from Honamli and Hair bucks. Semen samples were evaluated spermatologically and separated for seminal plasma collection, while blood samples obtained on the first and last collection days were processed for serum and stored at –20°C. ABSTRACT Background Breed‐related differences in spermatological

Spermatogenesis and Morphology of the Male Reproductive Tract of the Turtle Kinosternon scorpioides. [PDF]
Anat Histol EmbryolABSTRACT The scorpion mud turtle (Kinosternon scorpioides), a freshwater chelonian widely distributed in South and Central America, presents gaps in the microscopic and ultrastructural characterisation of its male reproductive system. This study provides a comprehensive characterisation of the testes, epididymides, and deferent ducts of adult males ...
