Genotype
+/Y (n= 7b) -/Y (n= 7b) Ratio of -/Y to +/Y P value
Body weight (g) 24.0±2.7 25.1±1.0 1.04 p < 0.35
Testicular weight (mg) 166±15 118±8 0.71 p < 0.0001*
Sperm/cauda (106) 6.95±2.11 3.65±0.43 0.52 p < 0.0016*
a

Mice from the C57BL/6J background were used at 2 months of age.

b

7 mice (n=7) for each genotype were used.

*

Values were statistically significant (Student's t-test).
