Spermitin: A Novel Mitochondrial Protein in Drosophila Spermatids
Figure 5
Sprn mutant males have normal fertility and sperm tail length.
(A) The number of progeny produced by single w1118 or sprnMB12149 males in the fertility test. The sprnMB12149 mutant males produced more progeny, but the difference was not significant according to Student's t test (p = 0.0905). Error bars represent standard error of the means (SEM), numbers inside the bars indicate the total number of males tested. (B) sprnMB12149 has normal sperm tail length compared to wild-type (w1118). Error bars represent standard error of the means (SEM), Student's t test was used to determine the statistical significance (p = 0.438). Values inside the bars indicate the total number of sperm that were measured.
