Comparative mRNA abundance of PGMRC1 and mPRβ mRNAs in the rainbow trout intact (N = 3 groups of 25 follicles) or deyolked (N = 3 groups of 25 follicles) post-vitellogenic ovary. The mRNA abundance of each gene (mean ± SEM) was determined by real-time PCR and normalized to the abundance of 18S. For each gene, mRNA abundance was arbitrarily set to 1 in the intact ovary. Asterisks indicate significant differences (p < 0.05).
