Dynamic Transcriptomic Profiling of the HPG Axis Reveals Stage-Specific Regulatory Networks Underlying Natural Sex Change in Orange-Spotted Grouper (Epinephelus coioides)
Key Points
Natural sex change occurs through distinct regulatory networks in the hpg axis, affecting development stages.
Key findings indicate that specific genes regulate sex differentiation at different stages of development.
Analysis of transcriptomic profiles provides deep insight into the functioning of sex change mechanisms in fish.
Findings highlight the complexity of sex determination, with implications for understanding aquatic species and their adaptations.
