Abstract excerpt
WW-type super-female broodstock are essential for all-female breeding in sturgeons under the ZZ/ZW sex-determination system, but their practical use is constrained by high mortality. This study investigates the underlying physiological and molecular mechanisms contributing to the reduced viability of WW-type super-female sterlet (Acipenser ruthenus) by comparing three genotypes (ZZ, ZW and WW) in terms of...
