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

Aquaculture is one of the most efficient modes of animal protein production and plays an
important role in global food security. Aquaculture animals exhibit extraordinarily diverse …

A diverse array of sex determination (SD) mechanisms, encompassing environmental to
genetic, have been found to exist among vertebrates, covering a spectrum from fixed SD …

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 …

Males and females share many traits that have a common genetic basis; however, selection
on these traits often differs between the sexes, leading to sexual conflict,. Under such sexual …

Males and females often differ in their fitness optima for shared traits that have a shared
genetic basis, leading to sexual conflict. Morphologically differentiated sex chromosomes …

Aquaculture has made an enormous contribution to the world food production, especially to
the sustainable supply of animal proteins. The utility of diverse reproduction strategies in …

Sexual reproduction is a fundamental aspect of life. It is defined by the occurrence of meiosis
and the fusion of two gametes of different sexes or mating types. Sex-determination …

Wild stocks of Pacific salmonids have experienced sharp declines in abundance over the
past century. Consequently, billions of fish are released each year for enhancing abundance …

Major progress has been made with genomic and genetic studies in aquaculture in the last
decade. However, research on epigenetic regulation of aquaculture traits is still at an early …
