P-221: Toxoplasmosis and Female Infertility

Background: Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular parasite, which affects a wide-range of mammals including human. Based on serological studies, T. gondii is one of the most prevalent protozoan parasites. Most cases of toxoplasmosis are asymptomatic or mild and influenza-like, but immunocompromised patients often develop fulminating life-threatening symptoms as pneumonia and encephalit...

P-41: The Effects of Cadmium as a Heavy Metal on Fertility and Offspring

Study on The Reproductive Organs and Fertility of The Male Mice following Administration of Metronidazole

Chromosomal rearrangements directly cause underdominant F1 pollen sterility in Mimulus lewisii-Mimulus cardinalis hybrids.

Chromosomal rearrangements can contribute to the evolution of postzygotic reproductive isolation directly, by disrupting meiosis in F1 hybrids, or indirectly, by suppressing recombination among genic incompatibilities. Because direct effects of rearrangements on fertility imply fitness costs during their spread, understanding the mechanism of F1 hybrid sterility is integral to reconstructing th...
