name:	Immunogenicity of zona pellucida glycoprotein-3 and spermatozoa YLP(12) peptides presented on Johnson grass mosaic virus-like particles.
description:	Immunization with the epitope prevented the animals from pregnancy (45.5% of mice did not conceive). When the epitope was given as a mixture with the ZP3 peptide (QAQIHGPR) conjugated to the bovine RNase T-cell epitope, 58.3% of the animals did not conceive. Litter size and litters/pregnant mice were also measured.
