The discovery of the Sry gene in 1990 triggered a revolution in our understanding of sex
determination. More recently, advances in non-model organisms have been fuelled by the …

Controlling the sex ratio is essential in finfish farming. A balanced sex ratio is usually good
for broodstock management, since it enables to develop appropriate breeding schemes …

Bluehead wrasses undergo dramatic, socially cued female-to-male sex change. We apply
transcriptomic and methylome approaches in this wild coral reef fish to identify the primary …

Fish sex reversal is a means to understand sex determination and differentiation, but it is
also used to control sex in aquaculture. This review discusses sex reversal in gonochoristic …

In fishes, sex is determined by genetics, the environment or an interaction of both.
Temperature is among the most important environmental factors that can affect sex …

Steroid hormones modulate several important biological processes like metabolism, stress
response, and reproduction. Steroidogenesis drives reproductive function wherein …

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) is extensively used in research; however the mechanisms that
control this species sex determination are still poorly understood. In the latest decades, it …

Sexual fate is no longer seen as an irreversible deterministic switch set during early
embryonic development but as an ongoing battle for primacy between male and female …

This review summarizes the important role of Anti-Müllerian hormone (Amh) during gonad
development in fishes. This Tgfβ-domain bearing hormone was named after one of its …

Cortisol is the main glucocorticoid (GC) in fish and the hormone most directly associated
with stress. Recent research suggests that this hormone may act as a key factor linking …
