PCA (18 genes) of gonad samples. The transition from females to males is captured along PC1 (50.7% variance), whereas PC2 (19.4% variance) extremes represent sexually differentiated gonads (bottom) and undifferentiated transitionary gonads (top). Sample sizes: F n = 5, ET n = 19, MT n = 9, LT n = 9, TP n = 5. F control female, ET early transitioning fish, LT late transitioning fish, MT mid-transitioning fish, TP terminal phase male.
