“…A study on rainbow trout found that inclusion of 0.03 and 0.05% of Ve in diet improved sperm concentration, spermatocrit, and motility after activation (Canyurt and Akhan, 2008). However, a study on yellow perch reported that sperm concentration and fertilizing ability were unaffected and only the testis-somatic index was increased by dietary Ve (Lee and Dabrowski, 2004).…”

A 3-month feeding experiment was conducted in an in-door seawater system to investigate the effect of dietary vitamin E (Ve) on the sperm quality of turbot (Scophthalmus maximus). D-α-tocopherol acetate was supplemented to the basal (control) diet (65.14 mg kg -1 Ve) to obtain low and high levels of dietary Ve (244.60 mg kg -1 , LVe; 721.60 mg kg -1 , HVe). Compared with the control, sperm concentration was significantly increased in Ve-supplemented groups (LVe and HVe); while relative sperm volume and testis-somatic index were significantly increased in group HVe only. Sperm motility duration was significantly longer in group HVe than in the control, but no significant difference was observed in percent motility among groups. Sperm size, the uniformity of mitochondrial size, and the integrity of mitochondria cristae and plasma membrane were improved by dietary Ve, especially in HVe. The content of Ve in testis and liver as well as polyunsaturated fatty acids in sperm increased with dietary Ve. These results suggested that dietary Ve, especially at the high level (721.60 mg kg -1 ), significantly improved sperm concentration and motility duration and maintained normal sperm morphology of turbot.

“…The sperm activity was viewed under Olympus microscopic at 100x magnification to see when all the sperm got stopped (Mims, 1991) while percentage motility from each sample was estimated using light microscope at 400x magnification immediately after addition of 20 μl distilled water as an activating solution. During spermatozoa activation, immotile sperm cell (ISC) was counted, and when the activation stopped, whole sperm cells (WSC) were counted (Canyurt et al, 2008). The motile sperm cells (MC) were calculated as:…”

The effect of dietary aqueous extract of fluted pumpkin (Telfairia occidentalis) leaf powder on growth and reproductive indices of male catfish, Clarias gariepinus bloodstocks was investigated. Fish fed experimental diets showed significantly improved reproductive indices over the control fish. Significantly higher (P < 0.05) gonadosomatic index was recorded for the fish fed diets of aqueous extract of T. occidentalis leaf powder compared to fish fed on control diet. These results revealed that supplement diets with medicinal plant (T. occidentalis) improve gonadosomatic index, and reproductive indices of male C. gariepinus broodstocks and this plant has a potential pro-fertility property which can be exploited in fish fingerling production by hatchery operators.

“…The feeding of this vitamin has useful effects on the reproductive performance of boar, rabbit and rams [39]. Similarly the supplementation of this vitamin has the constructive effects on reproductive system of cockerel, rats, dog and fish [40][41][42]. Spermatozoa require the ROS for normal functions like acrosome functions, capacitation and fusion of spermatozoa during the processes of fertilizations [43].…”
