Female shrimp are preferred for consumption because they are larger than males. Understanding the mechanism of sex differentiation is important for developing techniques to increase the number of female shrimp for economic benefits. This study investigates the reproductive development of <jats:italic>F<\/jats:italic>. <jats:italic>merguiensis<\/jats:italic> using transcriptome analysis. <jats:italic>Sxl2<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>dsx<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>AGH<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>FEM-1<\/jats:italic>, and <jats:italic>Nrg-X2<\/jats:italic> were classified as essential genes for testes development during the juvenile stage. Several genes were required for both juvenile and adult male development. Additionally, the expression of several genes was shown to be required for juvenile and adult ovarian development, including <jats:italic>SOP1<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>SOP2<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>Ptgr1<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>EST<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>Vgr<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>Vmol1<\/jats:italic>, and <jats:italic>TR-beta A<\/jats:italic>. Interestingly, high levels of <jats:italic>FoxL2<\/jats:italic> expression were observed in the testes, in contrast to previous studies in humans and other mammals. The binding of FoxL2 to the <jats:italic>Vtg<\/jats:italic> promoter was demonstrated <jats:italic>in silico<\/jats:italic> with the highest relative binding score (RS = 0.89) using the JASPAR program. Knock-down of the <jats:italic>FoxL2<\/jats:italic> gene with dsRNA significantly suppressed <jats:italic>FoxL2<\/jats:italic> at 2, 4, and 6 d. As a result, <jats:italic>Vtg<\/jats:italic> expression increased when compared with the control at 2, 4, and 6 d, indicating that <jats:italic>FoxL2<\/jats:italic> plays an important role in <jats:italic>Vtg<\/jats:italic> expression in the ovary. Our findings highlight the role of <jats:italic>FoxL2<\/jats:italic> in banana shrimp reproduction and provide valuable information on the genes associated with the <jats:italic>F<\/jats:italic>. <jats:italic>merguiensis<\/jats:italic> reproductive system.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0292782","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,12]],"date-time":"2023-10-12T17:32:03Z","timestamp":1697131923000},"page":"e0292782","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Transcriptome profiling of banana shrimp (Fenneropenaeus merguiensis) ovaries and testes: Insights into FoxL2"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4082-398X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Wutthipat","family":"Potiyanadech","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chaturawit","family":"Choomee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0812-1934","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Wilaiwan","family":"Chotigeat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"340","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"pone.0292782.ref001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"268","DOI":"10.1016\/j.aquaculture.2006.05.051","article-title":"Development of a growth model for penaeid shrimp","volume":"259","author":"AR Franco","year":"2006","journal-title":"Aquaculture"},{"key":"pone.0292782.ref002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"408","DOI":"10.1016\/S0990-7440(03)00085-8","article-title":"Chromosome set manipulation and sex control in common carp: a review","volume":"16","author":"B.
