SEX DETERMINATION, SEX RATIOS, AND GENETIC CONFLICT [PDF]
Annual Review of Ecology and Systematics, 1998 ▪ Abstract  Genetic mechanisms of sex determination are unexpectedly diverse and change rapidly during evolution. We review the role of genetic conflict as the driving force behind this diversity and turnover. Genetic conflict occurs when different components of a genetic system are subject to selection in opposite directions.

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016 Male and female reproductive behaviors in Drosophila melanogaster are vastly different, but neurons that express sex-specifically spliced fruitless transcripts (fru P1) underlie these behaviors in both sexes.

Mapping of the Sex Determining Region on Linkage Group 12 of Guppy (Poecilia reticulata)
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019 Poecilia reticulata is one of the most popular ornamental fish species with a higher demand for males due to their large colorful fins. The objectives of this study were mapping of the sex-determining (SD) region on linkage group 12 of guppy, and ...

The genetics of thermosensitive sex determination [PDF]
Temperature, 2016 Temperature-dependent sex determination, TSD for short, was first discovered in reptiles and has been studied for decades. However, the mechanism underlying TSD has been remarkably hard to define.

Sex Determination: Genetic Dominance in Oomycete Sex [PDF]
Current Biology, 2020 Oomycetes are notorious plant pathogens. It is known that genetically distinct oomycete strains can mate to increase their genetic diversity and virulence. A new paper finally reveals the genomic locus that may govern sexual compatibility in one oomycete species.

A Genetic Map for the Only Self-Fertilizing Vertebrate
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016 The mangrove killifish Kryptolebias marmoratus, and its close relative Kryptolebias hermaphroditus, are the only vertebrate species known to reproduce by self-fertilization due to functional ovotestis development.

From sexless to sexy: Why it is time for human genetics to consider and report analyses of sex
Biology of Sex Differences, 2017 Science has come a long way with regard to the consideration of sex differences in clinical and preclinical research, but one field remains behind the curve: human statistical genetics.

Genetic and genomic analysis of a fat mass trait with complex inheritance reveals marked sex specificity. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2006 The integration of expression profiling with linkage analysis has increasingly been used to identify genes underlying complex phenotypes. The effects of gender on the regulation of many physiological traits are well documented; however, "genetical ...
