Abstract excerpt
Male sex differentiation in the crustacean is best known to be controlled by the insulin-like androgenic gland hormone (IAG). In this report, the cDNA and gene of the shrimp Fenneropenaeus merguiensis FmIAG were studied and characterized. FmIAG gene shares a high sequence identity in the coding region as well as the promoter region with that of F. chinensis. FmIAG gene is most likely consists of 5 exons and 4...
