Table 2 Regression analysis between DFI and other DNA integrity parameters. Data (n = 18) related to boar sperm DNA integrity parameters and DFI, at the day of semen collection (Day 0) and upon liquid preservation at 18 °C for 96–108 h (Day 4) were merged together for correlation analysis

From: DNA methylation patterns vary in boar sperm cells with different levels of DNA fragmentation
