Surprising hormone-related gene activity discovered in the early larval stage of the Malabar grouper

Researchers at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST)’s Marine Climate Change Unit and Marine Eco-Evo-Devo Unit have highlighted patterns of gene activation during Malabar grouper larval development, revealing an unusual early peak of activation of thyroid and corticoid genes during the early larval stage of these fish. Researchers at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST)’s Marine Climate Change Unit and Marine Eco-Evo-Devo Unit have highlighted patterns of gene activation during Malabar grouper larval development, revealing an unusual early peak of activation of thyroid and corticoid genes during the early larval stage of these fish. Plants & Animals Molecular & Computational biology Phys.org – latest science and technology news stories
