Figure 2

Growth and reproductive parameters of F0 juveniles from control (CT) and warm temperature (WT) groups. (A) Total body weight, (B) standard length, and (C) gonadosomatic index in females and males after thermal treatment. (D, F) Ovary and (E, G) testis histology from F0 juvenile fish three months after thermal treatment. The enlarged images in E and G refer to the respective dotted boxes. PG: primary growth oocytes; SPG: spermatogonia; CS: Sertoli cells. Histograms are presented as mean ± S.E.M. Asterisks (*) indicate significant difference for p < 0.05. Data were analyzed in GraphPad Prism (version 5.02 for Windows, GraphPad Software, La Jolla California USA, www.graphpad.com).
