Sperm Morphological Characteristic and Mating Behaviour of Proviron® Treated West African Dwarf Bucks with Testicular Degeneration
This study was conducted to determine the effect of scrotal insulation and post insulation Proviron® treatment on sperm morphological characteristics and mating behavior. Twelve healthy WAD bucks, free from any clinical or andrological disorder were used. Scrotal insulation was done using insulating...
