Sperm RNA as a Mediator of Genomic Plasticity

Figure 3

TaqMan low density array (TLDA) workflow for assessing sperm RNA expression profile in relation to (IUI) pregnancy rate. Flow chart representing the number of individuals and candidate genes going through the different work-procedure stages. TLDA: training donors in Phase 1 were classified into three groups (tertiles) according to the pregnancy rate (PR) obtained after IUI: low (0 to 15.70% PR: Group (1); medium 15.71 to 23.00% PR: Group (2); high (23.01 to 45.0% PR: Group (3), adapted from Bonache et al, 2012.
