Abstract:
Segregation of sperm abnormality level and H-2 haplotypes was investigated in F2 hybrid males obtained from reciprocal crosses involving two B10.congenic strains carrying H-2 and the Y chromosome of Japanese wild mice: B10.MOL-OHM ( H-2 ωm4 , 23·1% of sperm abnormalities) and B10.MOL-OKB ( H-2 ωm8 , 11·1% of sperm abnormalities). In both types of crosses mean levels of abnormal spermatozoa were significantly higher for males typed as H-2 ωm4 / H-2 ωm4 than for heterozygous H-2 ωm4 / H-2 ωm8 or homozygous H-2 ωm8 / H-2 ωm8 . These results suggest that the gene for high sperm abnormality is linked to H-2 complex of the B10.MOL-OHM strain.
