Figure 5. Effects of Rspo1 overexpression on sex steroid production.

Figure 5

Testosterone (A) and oestradiol-17β (B) levels in whole embryos and gonads in control XX, control XY, and Rspo1-OV-XY fish, at different stages of development. Markedly reduced testosterone and simultaneously increased estradiol-17β levels in Rspo1-OV-XY fish, demonstrate the female-biased steroid production in Rspo1-OV-XY fish. Data are shown as mean ± S.E. Different letters (a, b, c, etc.) above the bars indicate that these groups differ significantly from each other at p < 0.01.
