To clarify- Are you trying to distinguish between these cases:
(1) subfertile for all mice (we have reduced fertility terms that are defined rather vaguely and should be refined)
vs.
(2) some percentage are completely infertile and some percentage are completely fertile (incomplete penetrance) ?
If the latter, I don't think the term label should be "partial infertility" which is subject to misinterpretation, rather something like "increased fe/male infertility incidence"... but I'm concerned that we should not encode penetrance of phenotypes into term names. (Lethality term names notwithstanding..)

Consider splitting the terms male infertility and female infertility into complete and partial sub terms. See J:209141 for an example of complete male infertility and partial female infertility (27% of females are infertile) Thanks, Sue
