Salinity-induced phenotypic plasticity in threespine stickleback sperm activation.

Biology letters - 1 Oct 2017

Taugbøl Annette, Mazzarella Anna B, Cramer Emily R A, Laskemoen Terje

Abstract excerpt

Phenotypic expression may be and often is influenced by an organism's developmental environment, referred to as phenotypic plasticity. The sperm cells of teleosts have been found to be inactive in the seminal plasma and are activated by osmotic shock for most fish species, through release in either hypertonic (for marine fish) or hypotonic (for freshwater fish) water. If this is the case, the regulatory system of...
