A great deal of information is known regarding the process of sex differentiation in fish, and
the mechanisms involved in primary sex determination are now beginning to be defined. A …

Teleost fishes are characterized by a diversity of sexual patterns. Hermaphroditism, the
expression of both male and female reproductive function in a single individual, generates …

The present work reviews the latest information on the cellular, molecular and physiological
aspects of sexual determination and differentiation in teleost fish. The group exhibits a large …

In many coral reef fishes, males face the evolutionary problems of how to allocate sperm
among frequent, daily mating in order to maximize the number of eggs they fertilize. A …

Many coral reef fishes migrate to form short-lived aggregations at predictable sites and times
in order to spawn. For the purposes of this review, such spawning aggregations are defined …

Gonad differentiation in male zebrafish involves a transformation from a 'juvenile ovary'to
testis. In our study, this phenomenon was analysed using a stable transgenic line (vas …

To test the hypothesis that sex determination in the European sea bass (Dicentrarchus
labrax L.) Can be affected by the incubating temperature during the very early …

Alternative reproductive tactics within one sex, adult sex or role change, and reproductive
suppression are all forms of reproductive plasticity commonly exhibited among teleost …

An example of alternative male strategies is seen in diandric protogynous (female first)
hermaphrodites, where individuals either mature directly as male (primary males) or first …

Socially-controlled functional sex change in fishes is a dramatic example of adaptive
reproductive plasticity. Functional gonadal sex change can occur within a week while …
