Chronic exposure to warm temperature causes low sperm abundance and quality in Drosophila melanogaster
Abstract Temperature influences male fertility across organisms; however, how suboptimal temperatures affect adult spermatogenesis remains understudied. In a recent study on Drosophila melanogaster oogenesis, we observed a drastic reduction in the fertility of adult males exposed to warm temperature...
