Abstract

Supplementation of MT @ 2 mM was more beneficial in cryopreservation of Hariana bull spermatozoa as evidenced from post-thawed sperm membrane integrity and acrosomal intactness. Melatonin can be recommended to be used @ 2 mM concentration into the semen extender to increase the post thaw sperm functional attributes in Hariana bull.
