Reproductive development of the threatened giant grouper Epinephelus lanceolatus
(Elsevier, 2019-05-02)
The giant grouper is presumed to follow the reproductive pattern of most Epinephelus species, characterized by protogynous hermaphroditism wherein male maturation is attained through sex reversal of a functional female. ...
Insights on the seasonal variations of reproductive features in the eastern Atlantic bluefin tuna
(Elsevier, 2019)
The Atlantic Bluefin Tuna (ABFT, Thunnus thynnus) is one of the most intensely exploited fisheries resources in the world. In spite of the years of studies on ABFT, basic aspects of its reproductive biology remain uncertain. ...
Induction of gonadal development in protogynous grouper with orally delivered FSH DNA
(Springer, 2019-08-01)
The availability of sexually mature fish often dictates the success of its captive breeding. In this study, we induced reproductive development in juvenile protogynous tiger grouper through oral administration of a plasmid ...
Gonadal response of juvenile protogynous grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus) to long term recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone administration
(Oxford University Press, 2019-03)
The role of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) in the gonadal development of protogynous hermaphroditic grouper (E. fuscoguttatus) was investigated. Recombinant giant grouper (E. lanceolatus) FSH (rggFSH) was produced in ...
Aquaculture breeding enhancement: Maturation and spawning in sea cucumbers using a recombinant relaxin-like gonad-stimulating peptide
(Frontiers Media, 2019-02-19)
Wild sea cucumber resources have been rapidly exhausted and therefore there is an urgent need to develop approaches that will help restocking. Currently, there is a lack of information regarding the genes involved in sea ...
Development of specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for yellowtail kingfish (Seriola lalandi) follicle stimulating hormone using recombinant gonadotropins
(Elsevier, 2019)
We developed a specific competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for yellowtail kingfish (Seriola lalandi) follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). We previously produced a full-length single chain recombinant ...
