Analysis of medaka sox9 orthologue reveals a conserved role in germ cell maintenance.
The sex determining gene is divergent among different animal species. However, sox9 is up-regulated in the male gonads in a number of species in which it is the essential regulator of testis determination. It is therefore often discussed that the sex determining gene-sox9 axis functions in several v...
