Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Anti-Mullerian hormone receptor type II (Amhr2) is a key receptor of Amh signaling in regulating gonad development. The amhr2 gene has been identified in numerous species, including a few teleost fishes. However, the roles of Amhr2 in Amh signaling in fish are poorly studied. METHODS AND RESULTS: In this study, an amhr2 homolog from obscure puffer (Takifugu obscurus) was identified, and its molecular...
