Fig. 6From: Gonadal transcriptomes associated with sex phenotypes provide potential male and female candidate genes of sex determination or early differentiation in Crassostrea gigas, a sequential hermaphrodite molluscExpressions of eight relevant genes in RT-qPCR in gonads along the gametogenetic cycle. FoxL2 was taken as a gold standard. Females: orange lines, males: blue lines. N = 3 for each stage (stages 0, 1, 2 and 3) and sex. QR: Relative Quantity. Values are means + SEM of triplicates. Stars indicate significant (p < 0.05) differences in gene expression at one gametogenetic stage, between males and femalesBack to article page
