• Muscle fiber characteristics, myofibrillar protein isoforms, and meat quality (2009, background): “Differences in fiber number and size are primarily under the control of sex hormones, and differences in fiber number between males and females can arise by hormonal action if differences in androgen hormones are sufficiently high during periods of prenatal fiber formation (Rehfeldt et al., 2004).”
