Gene expression profiling during spermatogenesis in early maturing male Atlantic salmon parr testes
29 Aug 2008
Abstract excerpt
The initiation of sexual maturation and spermatogenesis are complex processes that require the highly coordinated regulation of a number of key genes. The endocrine system plays crucial roles in these processes, but the precise mechanisms involved in sexual maturation of fish are poorly understood. We investigated the expression of genes encoding proteins involved in sex steroid biosynthesis (Ff1b (FTZ-F1...
