By Abigail Elizur


The overall objective of this research project was to advance reproductive maturation in Southern Bluefin Tuna (SBT), by understanding the role of the kisspeptin system in regulating puberty in SBT, using as a model, the Yellowtail Kingfish (YTK).

The project has improved the understanding of the role of kisspeptin system in regulating puberty in fish.
