Relationship Between Body Condition and Spermatological Properties in Goldfish (Carassius auratus) Semen
Yusuf Bozkurt

Abstract: In collected sperm, volume, motility, movement duration, density, total density and pH were recorded. Furthermore, body weight and body length were measured and correlations between spermatological properties and these parameters were assessed. There were significant positive correlations between total density and volume (r=0.981, p<0.01). On the other hand, the phenotypic correlation between body weight and length was not found statistically important (r=0.509, p>0.05).
