Isolation and characterization of partial insulin-like androgenic gland hormone gene from distal terminal ampoules of three marine shrimp Penaeus species from the Eastern Pacific

ABSTRACT The expansion of the shrimp industry depends on scientific advances related to the understanding of reproductive endocrinology that allows the development of aquaculture programs based on biotechnology. An insulin like-androgenic gland hormone (IAG) is synthesized in the male-specific andro...
