背景：斑马鱼的性别决定机制在很大程度上尚不清楚，性染色体和性别决定基因都尚未被鉴定。这表明斑马鱼的性别决定是由常染色体基因的遗传信号介导的。本研究的目的是确定先前认为与斑马鱼性别分化相关的六个基因的精确表达时间。目前的研究在性别决定和分化过程中通过广泛的采样日期调查了同一条鱼中所有六个基因的表达。
Background: The mechanism of sex determination in zebrafish is largely unknown and neither sex chromosomes nor a sex-determining gene have been identified. This indicates that sex determination in zebrafish is mediated by genetic signals from autosomal genes. The aim of this study was to determine the precise timing of expression of six genes previously suggested to be associated with sex differentiation in zebrafish. The current study investigates the expression of all six genes in the same individual fish with extensive sampling dates during sex determination and-differentiation.
