Effects of Estradiol and Testosterone on the Expression of Growth‐related Genes in Female and Male Nile Tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus
2017-05-17
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Nile tilapia exhibits strong sexual growth dimorphism. The potential role of sex steroid hormones in sexual growth dimorphism is not fully understood. We investigated the effects of estradiol (E2) and testosterone (T) on growth rate, plasma sex hormones, and expression of growth hormone (GH)‐insulin‐like growth factor (IGF) axis genes and muscle regulatory factor (MRF) genes in female and male Nile tilapi...
