A Threshold Dosage of Testosterone for Female‐to‐Male Sex Reversal in Rana rugosa Frogs

28 Sept 2016

Abstract excerpt

Androgens play a critical role in testicular differentiation in many species of vertebrates. While female-to-male sex reversal can be induced by testosterone (T) in some species of amphibians, the mechanism still remains largely unknown even at the histological level. In this study, we determined a threshold dosage of T to induce female-to-male sex reversal in the Japanese frog Rana (R.) rugosa. Tadpoles were...
