Abstract excerpt
The genetic mechanisms determining sex in teleost fishes are highly variable, ranging from a single gene to complex patterns of polygenic regulation. The master sex determining gene has only been identified in very few species and there is no information about the gene in the superorder Paracanthopterygii that includes the codfishes, toadfishes and anglerfishes. Here we characterize a male-specific region of 9 kb...
