Özet: Experiments were designed to clarify the effect of different extenders on sperm motility of rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss after shortterm cold storage at 4°C for 6 days. Sperm collection was performed through gentle abdominal massage. Sperm was suspended in different extenders at 1:3 dilution ratio. The motility and survival of sperm cells were assessed in all the treatments daily. Our results indicated that sperm remained as motile in glucose and dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) based extender at day 6. This study would be beneficial for cryopreservation and reproduction management.
