MroGCL Regulation of Early Prawn Spermatogenesis
2026-09-18
This 2024 study identified and functionally examined MroGCL, a germ cell-less homolog in the giant prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii. Its expression profile and RNAi phenotype support a role in early spermatogenic regulation, while also revealing substantial animal-to-animal variation that limits claims of complete sterility.
