DNA methylation patterns vary in boar sperm cells with different levels of DNA fragmentation

Abstract Background Sperm DNA integrity is considered essential for successful transmission of the paternal genome, fertilization and normal embryo development. DNA fragmentation index (DFI, %) has become a key parameter in the swine artificial insemination industry to assess sperm DNA integrity. Re...
