Observations on the Sub-Microscopic Structures of Gallus Gallus Spermatozoa
TL;DR: This author has concerned himself with the study of bird semen only as a secondary object, his chief attention being devoted to the investigation of mammalian spermatozoa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contamination of Semen and its Effect on Avian Fertility
M. A. Boone,Brenna L. Hughes +1 more
TL;DR: Most poultry breeders have long contended that fertility and hatchability would be lowered if fowl semen were contaminated by fecal material, but no scientific investigation has been made concerning this point.

Effects of ovalbumin on the motility and fertilising ability of fowl spermatozoa stored for 24 h at 4 °C
E. Blesbois,Isabelle Mauger +1 more
TL;DR: There was no effect of ovalbumin on the motility of spermatozoa stored in whole semen, except at an incorporation rate of 3 g/100 ml, when motility was reduced for spermatoza stored in TES diluent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Does alpha-lipoic acid-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers improve post-thawed sperm quality and ameliorate apoptosis-related genes of rooster sperm?
TL;DR: The results indicate that ALN30 could be regarded as a novel potential cryoprotectant for the cryopreservation of rooster semen and nanostructured lipid carriers improve not only the active compound (such as alpha-lipoic acid) of biomedical applicability but also the potential for industrial application in sperm cryop Reservation.

Expression of the chicken GDNF family receptor α-1 as a marker of spermatogonial stem cells
J. Mucksová,Jiří Kalina,Murray R. Bakst,H. Yan,J. P. Brillard,Barbora Benešová,Bohumil Fafilek,Jiří Hejnar,Pavel Trefil +8 more
TL;DR: The successful repopulation of sterilized recipient's testes with transplanted cGFRα1-positive donor testicular cells was demonstrated and recipient males subsequently produced functional heterologous spermatozoa capable of fertilizing an ovum and obtaining chicks with donor cell genotypes.

A Method of Obtaining Spermatozoa from the Domestic Fowl
W. H. Burrows,J. P. Quinn +1 more
TL;DR: The method presented in this paper consists of a manual elicitation of an ejaculatory response which is undoubtedly reflex in nature and can be obtained in a short period of time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective Fertilization in Fowls
TL;DR: An attempt was made to find out whether there was any selective preference in the union of sperm and egg cells in poultry, and it was found that self-fertilization was more effective or easier to make than cross fertilization.

The Influence of Certain Feeds Upon the Production of Spermatozoa by the Domestic Chicken
TL;DR: Experimental studies pertaining to the factors which may influence fertility in poultry have been limited to hatchability thus far, and for obvious reasons such studies have been confined to the female.

A study of the spermatozoon of the fowl, with particular reference to osmiophilic bodies in the sperm head
F. B. Adamstone,L. E. Card +1 more
TL;DR: The purpose of this study was to learn something of the nature of the bead‐like bodies which occur in the head of the sperm of the fowl since it was found in a previous study that they are apparently affected in a characteristic manner by vitamin E deficiency.
