Motility is an essential function of the mature male gamete and is widely used as an indicator of semen quality. Knowledge of signal transduction pathways regulating sperm motility is therefore important to gain insight into new methods to increase the fertilizing ability of semen samples, especially those subjected to biotechnological processes such as cryopreservation. In this article, we will briefly describe the roles of several signaling pathways involved in the motility of fowl sperm as compared to mammalian sperm. This review is intended to facilitate the design of future studies in fowl male fertility and improve the quality of frozen-thawed sperm.
