Our previous studies suggested the importance of gonadotropin-releasing hormones (GnRHs) for initiation of spawning migration of chum salmon, although supporting evidence had been not available from oceanic fish. In farmed masu salmon, the amounts of salmon GnRH (sGnRH) mRNAs in the forebrain increased in the pre-pubertal stage from winter through spring, followed by a decrease toward summer. W...

Studies of expression in in-vivo and in-vitro maturing oocytes have the potential to elucidate signalling pathways involved in the intricate crosstalk between the oocyte and its somatic compartment during differentiation and morphogenetic processes, and the origin of disturbances in oocyte maturation possibly involved in reduced fertility. This review summarizes data on expression studies with ...

Multimodal interaction enables multiple modes for users to interact with the system. Whereas multimodal IoT applications depends on multimedia systems’ input/output which may limit their scalability and expressiveness. Furthermore, could also be limited by integration, security, privacy, portability issues. This special issue focuses recent state-of-the-art advances in that address these challe...
