In silico analysis of the regulatory region of the Yellowtail Kingfish and Zebrafish Kiss and Kiss receptor genes
We have cloned and analysed the partial putative promoter sequences of the Yellowtail Kingfish (Seriola lalandi) Kiss2 and Kiss2r genes (380 and 420 bp, respectively). We obtained in silico 1.5 kb of the zebrafis...

The mRNA levels of GtH Iβ, GtH IIβ and GH in relation to testicular development and testosterone treatment in pituitary cells of male tilapia
The gonadotropin (GtH) IIβ mRNA levels in pituitary glands of male tilapia hybrids were proportional to the gonadosomatic index (GSI), while GtH Iβ was highest in fish with GSI of 0.56, but was lower in fish w...
