Figure 3.

Phenotypic comparison of Wildtype and bindin—KO sperm. Flagellar beat frequency and tail length are nearly identical between the wildtype and Bindin-null sperm. (A) Average values of tail beat frequency. (B) Head dimensions of individual animal values. N shows number of batches measured and n shows number of sperm measured. The bindin-KO sperm batches used for this measurement were B1, B3, and B4 of Table 1. (C) Summary of quantitative sperm morphometry. Statistical significance: Tail length p > 0.05, flagellar beat p > 0.05, head length p < 0.005, head width p > 0.05, ratio of head length to head width p < 0.005.
