Sexual reproduction is prevalent across diverse taxa. However, sex-determination
mechanisms are so diverse that even closely related species often differ in sex …

Fish sex ratio (SR) is an endpoint potentially indicating both endocrine activity and adversity,
essential elements for identifying Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) as required by …

Understanding environmental influences on sex ratios is important for the study of the
evolution of sex-determining mechanisms and for evaluating the effects of global warming …

Current knowledge on zebrafish (Danio rerio) sex determination suggests that this trait has a
polygenic genetic basis, although environmental factors, such as endocrine disrupting …

Chemical induced changes in fish biomarkers vitellogenin (VTG), secondary sex
characteristics (SSC), and sex ratio indicate modes/mechanisms of action (MOAs) of EAS …

Develo** population dynamics models for zebrafish is crucial in order to extrapolate from
toxicity data measured at the organism level to biological levels relevant to support and …

Sex determinations are diverse in vertebrates. Although many sex-determining genes and
pathways are conserved, the mechanistic roles of these genes and pathways in the genetic …

In the current climate change scenario, studies combining effects of water contaminants with
environmental parameters, such as temperature, are essential to predict potentially harmful …

The sex determination for zebrafish is controlled by a combination of genetic and
environmental factors. The determination of sex in zebrafish has been suggested to rely on a …

Zebrafish is a popular research model; but its mechanism of sex determination is unclear
and the sex of juvenile fish cannot be distinguished. To obtain fish with defined sex, we …
