Project description:In order to identify unexpected, or indeed previously uncharacterized genes may be important in sex- or gonad development, we developed a custom cDNA microarray represent 3837 unique transcripts of Scylla paramamosain derived from our EST project. Thirty-nine putative transcripts were observed to differentially expressed in testis and ovaries (P<0.05).

Thirty-nine putative transcripts were observed to differentially expressed in testis and ovaries (P<0.05). Two-condition experiment, Ovary vs. Testis. Biological replicates: 3 Ovaries, 3 Testis, 2 dye-swaps.
