Population Consequences of Releasing Sex-Reversed Fish: Applications and Concerns

C. Wederkind,  Sex Control in Aquaculture,  Chp 8:179-188. 2018.
Sex differentiation is generally more labile in gonochoristic fish than it is, for example, in birds and mammals. Environmentally induced sex reversal is, therefore, often possible, and creates genotype‐phenotype mismatches that can be useful in population management. ...

Sex Control in Aquaculture: Concept to Practice

H.P. Wang and Z.G. Shen,  Sex Control in Aquaculture,  2018.
Understanding sex determining (SD) mechanisms and related concepts in a wide range of fish species is critical for sex control and large‐scale monosex production in aquaculture, in which monosex culture is superior to mixed‐sex culture. Establishment of phenotypic sex is ...

Ecological and evolutionary applications for environmental sex reversal of fish

A. McNair, P. M. Lokman, G. P. Closs and S. Nakagawa,  Quarterly Review of Biology,  90:23-44. 2015.
Environmental sex reversal (ESR), which results in a mismatch between genotypic and phenotypic sex, is well documented in numerous fish species and may be induced by chemical exposure. Historically, research involving piscine ESR has been carried out with a view to improving ...
