Abstract
We investigated the molecular regulation of pubertal development in the grey mullet, Mugil cephalus, a relatively late-maturing teleost fish. We have isolated and characterized the cDNAs of key reproductive genes along the brain-pituitary-gonadal (BPG) axis as well as the promoters of genes that modulate the axis at multiple levels. Together with relevant findings from other model species, we propose a conceptual model of the neuroendocrine regulation of puberty in the female grey mullet. Research areas that warrant further investigation are identified in the model.
