The Rainbow Trout Genome Provides Novel Insights into Evolution after Whole-Genome Duplication in Vertebrates

Yann Guiguen
TL;DR: This paper showed that after 100 million years of evolution the two ancestral subgenomes have remained extremely collinear, despite the loss of half of the duplicated protein-coding genes, mostly through pseudogenization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ovarian aromatase and estrogens: A pivotal role for gonadal sex differentiation and sex change in fish

TL;DR: A broader hypothesis is extended that would place estrogens and Cyp19a1a in a pivotal position to control not only ovarian, but also testicular differentiation, in both gonochoristic and hermaphrodite fish species.
Journal ArticleDOI

The spotted gar genome illuminates vertebrate evolution and facilitates human-teleost comparisons

Ingo Braasch, +63 more
- 01 Apr 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors sequenced the genome of spotted gar (Lepisosteus oculatus), whose lineage diverged from teleosts before teleost genome duplication (TGD).
Journal ArticleDOI

Endocrine and environmental aspects of sex differentiation in fish

TL;DR: Although steroids and steroidogenic enzymes are probably not the initial triggers of sex differentiation, new data, including molecular approaches, have confirmed that they are key physiological steps in the regulation of this process.
