Fig. 8

Effects of amh and gdf9 double mutations (amh−/−;gdf9−/−) on gonadal development at 3 mpf (90 dpf). (A) Ovaries of different genotypes. While amh mutation had no effect on PG-PV transition despite increased PG follicles, the mutation of gdf9 completely blocked the transition with all follicles arrested at PG stage. Double mutation of the two genes (amh−/−;gdf9−/−) resulted in enlarged ovaries full of PG follicles only. (B) Testes of different genotypes. The mutation of gdf9 (amh−/−;gdf9−/−) had no effect on testis hypergrowth and dysfunctional spermatogenesis induced by amh single mutation (amh−/−;gdf9+/−). PG, primary growth follicles; PV, pre-vitellogenetic follicles; SG, spermatogonia in cysts; SC, spermatocytes; SZ, spermatozoa.
