Definition:A substance formed from the secretion of one or more glands of the male genital tract in which sperm cells are suspended.
Comment:[function-note] "seminal fluid may have a role in sperm capacitation, sperm motility"; [taxon-note] "This term covers a variety of species. Example: In D. melanogaster, seminal fluid proteins affect female receptivity, ovulation, oogenesis, sperm storage, sperm competition and mating plug formation" xsd:string {source="DOI:10.1046/j.1365-2540.2001.00961.x"}
