Revealing genes associated with vitellogenesis in the liver of the zebrafish (<it>Danio rerio</it>) by transcriptome profiling

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>In oviparous vertebrates, including fish, vitellogenesis consists of highly regulated pathways involving 17β-estradiol (E2). Previous studies focused on a relatively small number of hepatic expressed genes during vitellogenesis. This...
