Figure 3

Percent sperm motility from male Anaxyrus americanus treated with either hCG (Panel A) or LHRH (Panel B) over time after administration with either: 100 (triangles), 200 (squares), or 300 (diamonds) IU hCG compared to 0.1 (circles), 1.0 (triangles), 4 (squares) or 32 (diamonds) μg LHRH. Forward Progression for these same sperm samples are shown in Panel C for hCG or Panel D for LHRH. Only one male American toad administered 50 IU hCG produced sperm for quality assessment and was not included in Panel A and C. Data are expressed as Mean ± SEM; lower SEM bars not shown. For number of animals comprising each treatment Mean see Figure 1.
