Evolution of dosage compensation under sexual selection differs between X and Z chromosomes [PDF]
, 2015 Complete sex chromosome dosage compensation has more often been observed in XY than ZW species. In this study, using a population genetic model and the chicken transcriptome, we assess whether sexual conflict can account for this difference.

A General Mechanism for Network-Dosage Compensation in Gene Circuits [PDF]
, 2010 Coping with variations in network dosage is crucial for maintaining optimal function in gene networks. We explored how network structure facilitates network-level dosage compensation.

Evolution of Sex Chromosomes and Dosage Compensation in Plants
, 2022 Sex chromosomes are the chromosomes involved in sex determination and are characterized by reduced recombination, specialized gene content and dosage compensation. These are also called as allosomes1.

THE NATURE OF QUANTITATIVE GENETIC VARIATION IN DROSOPHILA. III. MECHANISM OF DOSAGE COMPENSATION FOR SEX-LINKED ABDOMINAL BRISTLE POLYGENES [PDF]
Genetics, 1977 ABSTRACT Seventeen lines, each homozygous for a different × chromosome but all with a common autosomal genetic background, were constructed and assayed for abdominal bristle number to determine whether dosage compensation operates for sex-linked genes affecting this character.—The regression coefficient of male mean on female mean using ...

Dosage Compensation in Females with X-Linked Metabolic Disorders
, 2021 Through the use of new genomic and metabolomic technologies, our comprehension of the molecular and biochemical etiologies of genetic disorders is rapidly expanding, and so are insights into their varying phenotypes.

Effects of Gene Dose, Chromatin, and Network Topology on Expression in Drosophila melanogaster.
PLoS Genetics, 2016 Deletions, commonly referred to as deficiencies by Drosophila geneticists, are valuable tools for mapping genes and for genetic pathway discovery via dose-dependent suppressor and enhancer screens.

Sex Bias and Maternal Contribution to Gene Expression Divergence in Drosophila Blastoderm Embryos. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2015 Early embryogenesis is a unique developmental stage where genetic control of development is handed off from mother to zygote. Yet the contribution of this transition to the evolution of gene expression is poorly understood.

Absence of a Faster-X Effect in Beetles (Tribolium, Coleoptera)
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020 The faster-X effect, namely the rapid evolution of protein-coding genes on the X chromosome, has been widely reported in metazoans. However, the prevalence of this phenomenon across diverse systems and its potential causes remain largely unresolved ...

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016 Theory makes several predictions concerning differences in genetic variation between the X chromosome and the autosomes due to male X hemizygosity. The X chromosome should: (i) typically show relatively less standing genetic variation than the autosomes,
