Figure 2

Comparison of the "common" deletion and semen quality and fertilization ability. (A-B) Comparison of the incidence of the "common" deletion in 45% and 90% percoll fraction from "normal" (A) and "defected" (B) semen samples. Samples were classified in four groups according to the calculated proportion of the deletion (see Additional file). (C-D) Comparison of the fertilization rate after IVF (C) and ICSI (D) from patients with different proportion of the "common" deletion. Samples were classified in two groups according to the calculated proportion of the deletion (above or below 0.1%).
