Brief description Infertility affects 1 in 25 Australian men and meiosis is a key process in male fertility, yet we know very little about the mechanisms that control it. We will use a new point mutant mouse model of meisois failure to identify a novel regulator of male fertility. Further, we hypothesize that changes in gene copy number will lead to meiosis arrest and infertility in some men. Such variations will be assessed through a whole genome scan of a unique set of infertile men.
