Evidence for the existence of transformer genes for sex in the teleost Xiphophorus maculatus.
sex-determining mechanism in Poeciliid fishes of the genus Xiphophorus ' F : been studied for more than forty years (BELLAMY 1928; GORDON 1927), yet many problems remain unsolved. In the southern platyfish, Xiphophorus maculatus, native to Mexico and adjacent parts of Central America, there are three types of females (XX, WX, WY) and two types of males (XY and YY) (GORDON 1947, 1954; KALLMAN 19...
متن کاملSkin pigmentation kinetics after UVB exposure.
There have been few previous studies of the kinetics of pigmentation following ultraviolet B (UVB) exposure, and these have included only fair-skinned persons. The current study investigated pigmentation increase to steady state and fading in 12 Scandinavians and 12 Indians/Pakistanis. Over a period of 3 weeks the subjects were UV-irradiated 6 times on the right side of the back and 12 times on...
متن کاملSex-specific genetic variances in life-history and morphological traits of the seed beetle Callosobruchus maculatus
Knowledge of heritability and genetic correlations are of central importance in the study of adaptive trait evolution and genetic constraints. We use a paternal half-sib-full-sib breeding design to investigate the genetic architecture of three life-history and morphological traits in the seed beetle, Callosobruchus maculatus. Heritability was significant for all traits under observation and gen...
متن کاملOccurrence and histopathology of Ascocotyle tenuicollis metacercaria in gill of platyfish (Xiphophorus maculatus) imported to Iran
The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of metacercarial infection in plathyfish imported to Iran. A total of 100 imported live common platyfish (Xiphophorus maculatus) from approximately 24 shipments were collected from a quarantine facility in Iran in 2007 and examined in our veterinary laboratory. Among 800 examined gill arches about 1300 cysts were found in different loc...
