In many of the articles only male fishes were kept in experimental groups. What is the reason? why females are avoided?
Please check
I think to eliminate confounders, or simply to ensure that the observations are not due to the female zebrafish's body chemistry-related obesity /diabetes.
Hi Archisman I believe there is nothing significant in this as its just the researcher thinks the Male Zebra fishes are appropriate for research.

@Entedhar, the paper did not address the question succinctly, could you please provide more?
@Entedhar, I couldn't find the answer in your provided link.
I have done enzyme histochemistry for several enzymes in fish gill tissues, now the reviewer wants quantitative data for the same.
