Convergence and divergence in sex-chromosome evolution
Nature Genetics, 2017A sequence assembly of the chicken W chromosome enables reconstruction of the gene content of the W chromosome across 14 bird species and shows striking similarities in the maintenance of broadly expressed and dosage-sensitive genes on highly degenerate sex chromosomes in both birds and mammals.

The evolution of restricted recombination in sex chromosomes
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2009In species with separate sexes, sex determination often has a genetic basis, and in a wide diversity of taxa a pair of cytologically distinguishable 'sex chromosomes' are found such that the chromosome complements of males and females differ (males are often XY and females XX, but sometimes females are ZW whereas males are ZZ).

Evolution of the Sex Chromosomes in Salmonid Fishes
Cytogenetic and Genome Research, 2013Most of the information on sex chromosomes in salmonid fishes is for species in the 3 genera of the subfamily Salmoninae found in North America: <i>Salvelinus, Salmo</i> and <i>Oncorhynchus</i>. All of the species are male heterogametic with XY sex determination. Morphologically distinguishable sex chromosomes are found only in &

[Origin and evolution of mammalian sex chromosomes].
Comptes rendus de l'Academie des sciences. Serie III, Sciences de la vie, 2001Mammals present an XX/XY system of chromosomal sex determination, males being the heterogametic sex. Comparative studies of the gene content of sex chromosomes from the major groups of mammals reveal that most Y genes have X-linked homologues and that X and Y share homologous pseudoautosomal regions.

Evolution of sex chromosomes in seed plants
Current BiologyIn seed plants (angiosperms and gymnosperms), sex is typically determined in the diploid sporophyte phase of the life cycle by sex chromosomes. This contrasts with bryophytes (mosses, liverworts, and hornworts), in which sex chromosomes act in the haploid gametophyte, whereas vascular non-seed plants (ferns and their allies) are not currently known to ...
