Abstract
An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of aqueous Gmelina arborea leaf extract on testicular morphometry, cauda epididymal sperm characteristics and organ weights of male rabbits. Thirty two (32) rabbit bucks, aged 9-11 weeks with an average weight of 1300g, were randomly allocated to four treatments comprising varying concentrations (0, 200, 400 and 600ml of extract per liter of water) of Gmelina arborea leaf. Each treatment consisting of 8 animals per group was replicated 8 times with one animal per replicate. Animals were fed aqueous Gmelina arborea leaf extracts for a period of fourteen (14) weeks. At the end of the experimental trial, the bucks were sacrificed and testicular morphometry, caudal epididymal sperm characteristics and viscera organ weights were evaluated. The results showed significant (P
