Abstract
The study dealt with the effect of the anticoagulant rodenticide Brodifacom on the reproduction of male mus musculus trapped from different localities of Baghdad province and fed with different doses (50 .75 ,100 mg) of pellets of this rodenticide. The results showed a significant decrease (p 0.01) in testicular weight and volume, epididymal ( head and tail) weight and numbers of different spermatogenic cells. The rodenticide caused a significant decrease in sperms concentration and a significant increase in dead and abnormal sperms in testes and epididymis.
