The ability to control sex is one of the most important factors for the commercialisation and efficient propagation of fish species, due to influences on reproduction, growth and product quality. Accordingly, there is a large body of research that targets sexual development  in commercially important species in an attempt to understand and control fish sex and reproductive function. In this review, we provide an introduction to sex determination and differentiation in fish, including the genetic, epigenetic and environmental factors that can influence fish sex ratios. We also summarise the major approaches used to control sex in fish and discuss their application in commercially important species. Specifically, we discuss the use of exogenous steroid hormones, chromosome ploidy, environmental manipulations, sex-linked genetic markers, selection for altered sex ratios, and transgenics and comment on the challenges associated with controlling sex in a commercial environment.</jats:p>"}]}],"creator":[{"@id":"https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1382262945089457923","@type":"Researcher","foaf:name":[{"@value":"Alyssa Budd"}],"jpcoar:affiliationName":[{"@value":"Centre for Sustainable Tropical Fisheries and Aquaculture, James Cook University, Townsville, Queensland 4810, Australia"}]},{"@id":"https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1382262945089457922","@type":"Researcher","foaf:name":[{"@value":"Quyen Banh"}],"jpcoar:affiliationName":[{"@value":"Centre for Sustainable Tropical Fisheries and Aquaculture, James Cook University, Townsville, Queensland 4810, Australia"}]},{"@id":"https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1382262945089457921","@type":"Researcher","foaf:name":[{"@value":"Jose Domingos"}],"jpcoar:affiliationName":[{"@value":"Centre for Sustainable Tropical Fisheries and Aquaculture, James Cook University, Townsville, Queensland 4810, Australia"}]},{"@id":"https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1382262945089457920","@type":"Researcher","foaf:name":[{"@value":"Dean Jerry"}],"jpcoar:affiliationName":[{"@value":"Centre for Sustainable Tropical Fisheries and Aquaculture, James Cook University, Townsville, Queensland 4810, Australia"}]}],"publication":{"publicationIdentifier":[{"@type":"EISSN","@value":"20771312"}],"prism:publicationName":[{"@value":"Journal of Marine Science and Engineering"}],"dc:publisher":[{"@value":"MDPI AG"}],"prism:publicationDate":"2015-05-28","prism:volume":"3","prism:number":"2","prism:startingPage":"329","prism:endingPage":"355"},"reviewed":"false","dc:rights":["https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"],"url":[{"@id":"https://www.mdpi.com/2077-1312/3/2/329/pdf"}],"createdAt":"2015-05-28","modifiedAt":"2025-10-11","relatedProduct":[{"@id":"https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1360290617773132672","@type":"Article","resourceType":"学術雑誌論文(journal article)","relationType":["isReferencedBy"],"jpcoar:relatedTitle":[{"@value":"Green light irradiation during sex differentiation induces female-to-male sex reversal in the medaka Oryzias latipes"}]},{"@id":"https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1360567181934274816","@type":"Article","resourceType":"学術雑誌論文(journal article)","relationType":["isReferencedBy"],"jpcoar:relatedTitle":[{"@value":"Production of neo-males from gynogenetic yellow drum through 17α-methyltestosterone immersion and subsequent application for the establishment of all-female populations"}]},{"@id":"https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1360861705598888576","@type":"Article","resourceType":"学術雑誌論文(journal article)","relationType":["isReferencedBy"],"jpcoar:relatedTitle":[{"@value":"First Data on Sexual Dimorphic Growth of Cultured Pacific Bluefin Tuna, Thunnus orientalis (Temminck et Schlegel), and Its Sex Manipulation by Treatment with an Aromatase Inhibitor"}]},{"@id":"https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1390003825203987712","@type":"Article","resourceType":"学術雑誌論文(journal article)","relationType":["isReferencedBy"],"jpcoar:relatedTitle":[{"@language":"en","@value":"Morphological and physiological studies regarding gonadal differentiation and sex change in Serranidae"},{"@language":"ja","@value":"ハタ科魚類の性分化と性転換に関する形態学的および生理学的研究"},{"@language":"ja-Kana","@value":"ハタカギョルイ ノ セイ ブンカ ト セイ テンカン ニ カンスル ケイタイガクテキ オヨビ セイリガクテキ ケンキュウ"}]}],"dataSourceIdentifier":[{"@type":"CROSSREF","@value":"10.3390/jmse3020329"},{"@type":"CROSSREF","@value":"10.1038/s41598-019-38908-w_references_DOI_HMQOaLom2lKWZIqhIMiyUswwpw4"},{"@type":"CROSSREF","@value":"10.1155/2023/1590646_references_DOI_HMQOaLom2lKWZIqhIMiyUswwpw4"},{"@type":"CROSSREF","@value":"10.1016/j.aquaculture.2018.02.015_references_DOI_HMQOaLom2lKWZIqhIMiyUswwpw4"},{"@type":"CROSSREF","@value":"10.2331/suisan.20-00003_references_DOI_HMQOaLom2lKWZIqhIMiyUswwpw4"}]}
