Gene expression in pituitary and ovary from GCF and WT females. Expression of fshb (a), lhb (b), gnrhr4 (c), cyp19a1 (d), insl3 (e), star (f), cyp17a1 (g), bmp15l (h), fshr (i) and lhcgr (j) relative to ef1a, in Atlantic salmon female pituitaries (a–c) and ovaries (d–j), measured by qPCR. Data are shown as mean with SEM, n = 21–24 (GCF), 9–10 (Immature WT) and 8–10 (Vitellogenic WT). Significant differences between groups are indicated by different letters. GCF; germ cell-free, vit; vitellogenic, WT; wild type.
