This review aims at synthesizing the most relevant information regarding the
neuroendocrine circuits controlling reproduction, mainly gonadotropin release, in teleost …

Control of reproductive function in captivity is essential for the sustainability of commercial
aquaculture production, and in many fishes it can be achieved by manipulating photoperiod …

Puberty comprises the transition from an immature juvenile to a mature adult state of the
reproductive system, ie the individual becomes capable of reproducing sexually for the first …

Teleosts lack a hypophyseal portal system and hence neurohormones are carried by nerve
fibers from the preoptic region to the pituitary. The various cell types in the teleost pituitary …

This article reviews the use of hormonal treatments to enhance sperm production in
aquaculture fish and the methods available for evaluating sperm quality. The different types …

While gonadotropin‐releasing hormone (GnRH) is considered as the major hypothalamic
factor controlling pituitary gonadotrophins in mammals and most other vertebrates, its …

Reproductive activities of many fish species are, to some extent, entrained to cues from the
moon. During the spawning season, synchronous spawning is repeated at intervals of c. 1 …

Fish are the largest phylum of living vertebrates, with around 30,000 fish species out of
approximately 50,000 vertebrate species (www. fishbase. com)[1]. Fish inhabit almost every …

In humans, as in the other mammals, the neuroendocrine control of reproduction is ensured
by the brain-pituitary gonadotropic axis. Multiple internal and environmental cues are …

The G-protein-coupled receptor 54 (muGPR54) cDNA was cloned from the brain of the grey
mullet, and its expression level, as well as those of the gonadotropin-releasing hormones …
