Abstrakt     The aim of the study was to define the relevance of deletions and duplications within the DAZ gene cluster to mate factor infertility in a population of 90 infertile men and a control of 50 fertile men using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). We conclude that partial deletions of the DAZ genes are associated with oligozoospermia but not with azoospermia; however, an increased number of DAZ genes does not seem to be a statistically significant risk factor for spermatogenic failure.
