A diverse array of sex determination (SD) mechanisms, encompassing environmental to
genetic, have been found to exist among vertebrates, covering a spectrum from fixed SD …

Aquaculture is one of the most efficient modes of animal protein production and plays an
important role in global food security. Aquaculture animals exhibit extraordinarily diverse …

Duplicates of amh are crucial for fish sex determination and differentiation. In Nile tilapia,
unlike in other teleosts, amh is located on X chromosome. The Y chromosome amh (amh Δ …

In teleost fish, sex steroids are involved in sex determination, sex differentiation, and fertility.
Cyp17a1 (Cytochrome P450 family 17 subfamily A member 1) is thought to play essential …

Ovarian development is a complex process controlled by precise coordination of multiple
factors. The targeted gene knockout technique is a powerful tool to study the functions of …

Marine plastic pollution has garnered substantial attention, but the potential endocrine
disrupting effects of plastic leachates in marine organisms remain unclear. In this study, the …

In vertebrates, mainly single genes with an allele ratio of 1: 1 trigger sex-determination (SD),
leading to initial equal sex-ratios. Such genes are designated master-key regulators (MKRs) …

The application of some hormones in fish production in swamps enhances fish production.
However, in this regard, the critical issue is chemical contamination in water, which affects …

The involvement of sex steroids in sex determination and differentiation is relatively
conserved among non-mammalian vertebrates, especially in fish. Thanks to the advances in …

Estrogens play fundamental roles in regulating reproductive activities and they act through
estrogen receptors (ESRs) in all vertebrates. To date, distinct roles of estrogen receptors …
