Comparative expression profiling of testis-enriched genes regulated during the development of spermatogonial cells. [PDF]
The testis has been identified as the organ in which a large number of tissue-enriched genes are present. However, a large portion of transcripts related to each stage or cell type in the testis still remains unknown.

Evidence for directional testes asymmetry in Hyla gongshanensis jindongensis
The compensation hypothesis predicts that one testis may grow more for compensating for a reduced function in the other testis, thus exhibiting a directional asymmetry in testis size. In this study, we tested the prediction of the compensation hypothesis

Testes asymmetry, condition and sexual selection in birds: an experimental test [PDF]
The functional significance of the marked directional asymmetry in testes size observed in many bird species is obscure. Møller suggested that (i) the smaller of the two testes serves a compensatory role and increases in size (and hence reduces ...
