Abstract:In Zhejiang province, large yellow croakers are primarily cultured in net cages, facing significant challenges during the overwintering period such as susceptibility to cold and starvation stress. Notably, the observable sexual dimorphism in the large yellow croaker hints at the likelihood of gender differences in their responses to these environmental stresses. However, the potential sex-specific adaptive changes during overwintering remain unexplored. To gain deeper insights, we investigated the expression o… Show more
