Identification of Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF) Family Genes in the Golden Pompano, Trachinotus ovatus: Molecular Cloning, Characterization and Gene Expression. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci
Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) are hormones that primarily stimulate and regulate animal physiological processes. In this study, we cloned and identified the open reading frame (ORF) cDNA sequences of IGF family genes: the insulin-like growth factor ...

Identification and ovarian developmental regulation of Insulin-like growth factor 3 in spotted scat (Scatophagus argus)

Aquaculture Reports, 2021
Insulin-like growth factor 3 (IGF3), a newly discovered member of the IGF family in teleosts, plays a vital role in the reproduction system of fishes. Therefore, this study explored the spotted scat (Scatophagus argus), which is an aquaculture species of

Liquid‐phase sintering of ZrO2‐based nanocrystalline glass–ceramics achieved by multielement co‐doping

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 2702-2715, April 2023., 2023
Abstract Liquid‐phase sintering (LPS) is an effective pathway to assist the densification of ceramics. However, it has seldom been used to densify glass–ceramics. In the present study, a multielement co‐doping strategy has been utilized to achieve LPS of a ZrO2–SiO2 nanocrystalline glass–ceramic.

Strong regulatory effects of vgll3 genotype on reproductive axis gene expression in juvenile male Atlantic salmon [PDF]

, 2022
Age at maturity is a major contributor to the diversity of life history strategies in organisms. The process of maturation is influenced by both genetics and the environment, and includes changes in levels of sex hormones and behavior, but the specific ...

Genome-wide characterization of three IGFs in hybrid yellow catfish (Pseudobagrus fulvidraco ♀× Pseudobagrus vachellii ♂) and the association of IGF2 allelic variants with growth traits

Aquaculture Reports, 2022
“Huangyou No. 1”, a new hybrid yellow catfish (Pseudobagrus fulvidraco ♀× Pseudobagrus vachellii ♂) with heterosis in growth traits, is an economically important freshwater fish in China. Among genes related to growth traits, Insulin-like growth factors (

Genome‐wide association and genomic selection in aquaculture

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 15, Issue 2, Page 645-675, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Recent advancements in genomic technologies have led to the discovery and application of DNA‐markers [e.g. single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)] for the genetic improvement of several aquaculture species. The identification of specific genomic regions associated with economically important traits, using, for example, genome‐wide association ...
