Abstract excerpt
FOXL2 which is a putative winged helix/forkhead transcription factor gene and a sexually dimorphic marker of ovarian differentiation plays an important role in ovarian development, granulosa cell differentiation, and thus the proper maintenance of ovarian function. The aims of this study were to characterize polymorphisms within the FOXL2 gene in a population of 52 female Japanese flounder and analyze the...
