Involvement of Taiman in juvenile hormone signaling controlling sexual maturation in a male moth [PDF]
Current Research in Insect ScienceIn insects, juvenile hormone (JH) is essential for orchestrating reproductive events. For example, in the male moth Agrotis ipsilon, the behavioral response to female sex pheromone is linked to neuronal sensitivity in the primary olfactory centers ...

Genome-wide association study (GWAS) for growth rate and age at sexual maturation in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Early sexual maturation is considered a serious drawback for Atlantic salmon aquaculture as it retards growth, increases production times and affects flesh quality. Although both growth and sexual maturation are thought to be complex processes controlled

Multi-omics analysis reveals changes in tryptophan and cholesterol metabolism before and after sexual maturation in captive macaques [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2023 Rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta, RMs) are widely used in sexual maturation studies due to their high genetic and physiological similarity to humans.

Aggregation pheromone 4-vinylanisole promotes the synchrony of sexual maturation in female locusts [PDF]
eLife, 2022 Reproductive synchrony generally occurs in various group-living animals. However, the underlying mechanisms remain largely unexplored. The migratory locust, Locusta migratoria, a worldwide agricultural pest species, displays synchronous maturation and ...

Detection of Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) Related to Grilsing and Late Sexual Maturation in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) [PDF]
Marine Biotechnology, 2013 In Atlantic salmon aquaculture, early sexual maturation represents a major problem for producers. This is especially true for grilse, which mature after one sea winter before reaching a desirable harvest weight, rather than after two sea winters.
