Abstract:Advances in cold storage and cryopreservation of amphibian sperm are critical for the genetic management and conservation of threatened species. This study represents the first investigation into the sperm of the yellow-spotted mountain newt (Neurergus derjugini), focusing on both short-term and long-term storage for future reproductive efforts. We examined the effects of seven extenders on sperm motility over time at three storage temperatures (4±1 °C, 9±1 °C, and 20±1 °C). Additionally, we assessed the impac… Show more
