Abstract:It has been established that the male-specific region of the Y chromosome (MSY) carries genes that contribute to spermatogenesis and male fertility. In the past decades, there have been numerous attempts to identify the genes that are responsible for spermatogenesis (Tyler-Smith & Krausz, 2009).

It has been reported that 2 to 3% … Show more
