Description of the stages and scale of maturity for gonads of female pollock
Walleye pollock maturing, its gonads changes and the oocytes development are considered, in particular the structure of filiform gonads, gonads of hermaphrodites, and atretic phenomena.

Deciphering Sex-Specific Differentiation of Human Fetal Gonads: Insight From Experimental Models
Sex-specific gonadal differentiation is initiated by the expression of SRY in male foetuses. This promotes a signalling pathway directing testicular development, while in female foetuses the absence of SRY and expression of pro-ovarian factors promote ...

Characterization of atrazine-induced gonadal malformations in African clawed frogs (Xenopus laevis) and comparisons with effects of an androgen antagonist (cyproterone acetate) and exogenous estrogen (17beta-estradiol): Support for the demasculinization/feminization hypothesis. [PDF]
Atrazine is a potent endocrine disruptor that both chemically castrates and feminizes male amphibians. It depletes androgens in adult frogs and reduces androgen-dependent growth of the larynx in developing male larvae.

Action of the Metalloproteinases in Gonadal Remodeling during Sex Reversal in the Sequential Hermaphroditism of the Teleostei Fish Synbranchus marmoratus (Synbranchiformes: Synbranchidae) [PDF]
Teleostei present great plasticity regarding sex change. During sex reversal, the whole gonadincluding the germinal epithelium undergoes significant changes, remodeling, and neoformation.However, there is no information on the changes that occur within ...

Expression of P450arom, AMH and ERα mRNA in Gonads of Turkey, Duck and Goose within One Week of Age
Although many studies have shown that P450aromatase (P450arom), anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) and estrogen receptor α (ERα) play pivotal roles in sexual differentiation of the gonads during early embryonic development in chickens and ...
