MOLECULAR CLONING OF THE VITELLOGENIN GENE IN THE HARD-LIPPED BARB (Osteochillus hasseltii C.V) AND PHOTOPERIOD'S EFFECTS ON GENE EXPRESSION

Biotropia: The Southeast Asian Journal of Tropical Biology, 2018
Photoperiod affects fish reproduction as it regulates activities of the endocrine glands, which produce the hormones needed for geonadal growth and development, gametogenesis, and reproductive cycles.

Protein content and electrophoretic profile of fat body and ovary extracts from workers of Melipona quadrifasciata anthidioides (Hymenoptera, Meliponini)

Iheringia: Série Zoologia, 2004
Workers of Melipona quadrifasciata anthidioides (Lepeletier, 1836) develop their ovaries and lay eggs, therefore the production of vitellogenin is expected.

Full-Length Transcriptome Sequencing and Comparative Transcriptomic Analysis Provide Insights Into the Ovarian Maturation of Exopalaemon carinicauda

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The ridgetail white shrimp Exopalaemon carinicauda has the potential to be used as a useful experimental organism in the field of crustacean research due to its transparent body, large egg, and short reproductive cycle. However, little is known about the

Molecular Characterization of Vitellogenin and Its Receptor in Sogatella furcifera, and Their Function in Oocyte Maturation

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
The yolk protein precursor, vitellogenin (Vg), provides nutrition for embryonic development whereas the vitellogenin receptor (VgR) is responsible for the uptake of yolk protein by maturing oocytes.

Identification and Expression of vitellogenin gene in the Gouramy (Osphronemous Gourammy) under photoperiods manipulation

E3S Web of Conferences, 2018
Vitellogenin was protein hormone where controlled gonad development in fish. Expression of this gene regulated from the external and internal factor.Photoperiods are the external factor that regulated endocrine gland activities in gonadal development ...

Suppression of a Novel Vitellogenesis-Inhibiting Hormone Significantly Increases Ovarian Vitellogenesis in the Black Tiger Shrimp, Penaeus monodon

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
In this study, a novel Crustacean Hyperglycemic Hormone-type II gene (CHH-type II) was identified and biologically characterized in a shrimp, Penaeus monodon. Based on its structure and function, this gene was named P.

Vitellogenin gene family in vertebrates: evolution and functions

The European Zoological Journal, 2019
The vitellogenin gene family is constituted of variable gene numbers encoding for polypeptides that are precursors of yolk proteins and derivatives in oviparous and ovoviviparous vertebrates.

Xenoestrogen Status of Wuling Farm to Surrounding Water Bodies: An Application of Biochemical Parameters Using Onychostoma barbatulum

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
The aim of this study was to apply biochemical parameters to Onychostoma barbatulum to understand whether Wuling Farm activities have caused organic pollution from xenoestrogens to flow into surrounding streams and thereby affected area aquatic ...

Vitellogenins - Yolk Gene Function and Regulation in Caenorhabditis elegans

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
Vitellogenins are a family of yolk proteins that are by far the most abundant among oviparous animals. In the model nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, the 6 vitellogenins are among the most highly expressed genes in the adult hermaphrodite intestine, which
