Swimming fish spermatozoa – analysis of flagellar movement

Abstract

In most animal species, spermatozoa motility is dependent on a long appendage called flagellum. The flagellum behavior during the motility period can provide more deeper understanding of basis of spermatozoa motility in a more detailed way and complementary to the methods used so far which consist mainly in the analysis of fish sperm head behavior (velocity, linearity of tracks, etc) obtained by regular CASA. In the present review, a description of the different mechanisms accounting for sperm flagellum movement is presented, with special emphasis regarding to fish spermatozoa. Features and difficulties encountered when studying fish sperm movement are described in detail.
