## Abstract Cytochrome P450 aromatase (cyp19) is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of androgens to estrogens and may play a role in temperatureโdependent sex determination (TSD) of reptiles, amphibians, and fishes. In this study, the ovarian P450 aromatase form (__cyp19A1__) of pejerrey __Odo
Atherinidae is a family of fishes known to include at least three species with documented thermolabile sex determination. In Odontesthes bonariensis, fish exposed to about 17ยฐC from hatching to juvenile stage become all-female, whereas groups exposed to about 25ยฐC become male-biased. In contrast, se
