Identification of conserved genes triggering puberty in European sea bass males (Dicentrarchus labrax) by microarray expression profiling

Abstract Background Spermatogenesis is a complex process characterized by the activation and/or repression of a number of genes in a spatio-temporal manner. Pubertal development in males starts with the onset of the first spermatogenesis and implies the division of primary spermatogonia and their su...
