Gamete release in Ciona robusta: roles of gonadotropin-releasing hormone and the photoreception system

|
By Tomohiro Osugi, Shin Matsubara, Akira Shiraishi, Azumi Wada
| BioRxiv
Abstract Gamete release, an essential event for animals, is regulated by various factors including environmental stimuli, neural circuit, and endocrine molecules. In this study, we investigated the mechanisms regulating gamete release in the ascidian Ciona robusta, part of the sister group of vertebrates. Ciona is a hermaphrodite, releasing sperm first from orange-pigmented organ (OPO) at the end of the spermiduct, followed by eggs from the oviduct beneath the spermiduct knob-like structure.
