Elevated <i>amh</i> Gene Expression in the Brain of Male Tilapia <i>(Oreochromis niloticus) </i>during Testis Differentiation
18 Dec 2010
Abstract excerpt
Anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) is expressed in male embryos and represses development of müllerian ducts during testis differentiation in mammals, birds and reptiles. Amh orthologues have been identified in teleosts despite them lacking müllerian ducts. Previously we found sexually dimorphic aromatase activity in tilapia brains before ovarian differentiation. This prompted us to search for further dimorphisms in...
