A duplicated amh is the master sex-determining gene for Sebastes rockfish in the Northwest Pacific

Teleost fish are the most diverse group of vertebrates and provide opportunities to study the evolution of sex determination (SD) systems. Using genomic and functional analyses, we identified a male-specific duplication of anti-Müllerian hormone (amh) gene as the male master sex-determining (MSD) ge...
