This study shows that DMRT1 is essential for testis determination in rabbits and also critical for female fertility, revealing its conserved role across vertebrates.

This study shows that absence of estrogen in male rabbits leads to reduced fertility, lower sperm count, and increased flagellar defects in sperm.

The paper shows that fetal estrogen production is not required for ovarian determination but is essential for ovarian development and follicle formation in rabbits.
