1. Head defects: for example, large head, small head, conical head, pear-shaped head, round head, amorphous head, head with vacuoles, head with too small acrosome, double head, and any combination of the above defects.
2. Neck and midsection defects: for example, curved neck, midsection asymmetrically attached to the head, as well as coarse or irregular breaks, abnormally thin midsection and any combination of the above defects.
3. Tail defects: e.g. short tails, multiple tails, hairpin tails, broken tails, curved tails, irregular width of tails, curved tails or any combination of the above defects.
