Apoptosis during gametogenesis in diploid and triploid turbot (Scophthalmus maximus)

Apoptosis was monitored in male and female diploid and triploid turbot encompassing a full gametogenic cycle. Results indicate that apoptosis is involved in the normal regulation of spermatogenesis progression and male germ cell fate, and provide the first evidence that the differential effects of t...

Description
Summary:Apoptosis was monitored in male and female diploid and triploid turbot encompassing a full gametogenic cycle. Results indicate that apoptosis is involved in the normal regulation of spermatogenesis progression and male germ cell fate, and provide the first evidence that the differential effects of triploidy on gonadal development include the induction of apoptosis in females Peer Reviewed
