Figure 1

Endocrine mechanisms of sex change by TIS cells in groupers. Schematic representation of the distribution of steroid-producing cells, including TIS cells, in the gonad, and the changes in plasma sex steroid levels during the ovary-to-testis sex change in groupers, following Alam et al. (2005, 2006), Bhandari et al. (2003, 2006), and Kobayashi et al. (2010)13,14,15,16,17. E2 estradiol-17β, 11KT 11-ketotestosterone, Cyp11a cytochrome-P450-scc, Cyp11b cytochrome-P450-11β-hydroxylase, FSH follicle-stimulating hormone. The figures were constructed in Inkscape 1.0beta2 (https://inkscape.org).
