Analysis of AR double mutants highlights the modular control of social dominance by ARα and ARβ. (A) ARαd50/d50;ARβd5/d5 males had smaller testes than ARα+/+;ARβ+/+ males. (B) ARαd50/d50;ARβd5/d5males and females lacked the dominant-typical coloration observed in ARα+/+;ARβ+/+ males. (C) ARα+/+;ARβ+/+ males possessed more “very dark grayish lime green” (#475547) (D) and “dark grayish lime green” (#6A806A) pixels than ARαd50/d50;ARβd5/d5 males and females, which were indistinguishable from one another. (E) ARα+/+;ARβ+/+ males performed more lateral displays (F) and border fights directed toward the stimulus male than ARα Δ/Δ;ARβd5/d5males and females. (G) A summary of the current findings in the form of a working model. +, wild type; d, deletion. Circles represent data points for individual fish. Crosses represent mean ± SEM; **P < 0.01; *P < 0.05.
