Reproduction
Eels do not mature under captive conditions. It is not uncommon for fish to begin and complete their final maturation under closed aquaculture... -
Reproductive Condition in the Caspian Anadromous Shad Alosa kessleri kessleri (Alosidae) during Spawning Migration in the Volga River
AbstractThis paper describes the state of the gonads of Caspian anadromous shad, Alosa kessleri kessleri (Grimm, 1887), migrating for spawning in...

Genetic evidence for differential functions of figla and nobox in zebrafish ovarian differentiation and folliculogenesis
FIGLA and NOBOX are important oocyte-specific transcription factors. Both figla-/- and nobox-/- mutants showed all-male phenotype in zebrafish due to...

Krüppel-homolog 1 exerts anti-metamorphic and vitellogenic functions in insects via phosphorylation-mediated recruitment of specific cofactors
BackgroundThe zinc-finger transcription factor Krüppel-homolog 1 (Kr-h1) exerts a dual regulatory role during insect development by preventing...

Female Gonads
Similar to most Cyprinidae, zebrafish ovaries are divided into left and right leaf, fixed on both sides of the abdominal cavity through the... -
Morphological aspects of oogenesis in the deep-sea clam Calyptogena pacifica (Pliocardiinae; Vesicomyidae)
The ultrastructure of oogenic cells and mature oocytes has been described in a deep-sea clam, Calyptogena pacifica , for the first time. Specimens...

Sex Hormones and Their Role in Gonad Development and Reproductive Cycle of Fishes
The development of captive broodstock and reproductive maturation is essential for induced breeding. The reproductive cycle of fish is divided into... -
Linking the dynamic organization of the ovary with spawning dynamics in pelagic fishes
The link between the dynamic organization of the ovary and spawning dynamics was investigated in pelagic fishes with indeterminate fecundity. Αn...
