Table 4 List of differentially expressed genes associated with spermatogenesis, cytoskeleton and cell motility between genotypic and temperature-induced males males. The gene function follows the biological databases Uniprot, KEGG, Zfin and GeneCards. Positive log2 fold change (l2fc) indicates transcripts that were more abundant in genotypic males. Negative log2 fold change indicates transcripts that were more abundant in temperature-induced triploid males. Asterisks indicate significant differences in gene expression level between genotypic and temperature-induced males: * for padj < 0.05, ** for padj < 0.01, *** for padj < 0.001.

From: Differential expression of reproduction and sex-determining genes in the gonads of genotypic and temperature-induced males of gibel carp (Carassius gibelio)
