A CRISPR-Cas9 sex-ratio distortion system for genetic control. [PDF]
, 2016 Genetic control aims to reduce the ability of insect pest populations to cause harm via the release of modified insects. One strategy is to bias the reproductive sex ratio towards males so that a population decreases in size or is eliminated altogether ...

Pengaruh suhu lingkungan tropis terhadap penentuan jenis kelamin drosophila
Journal of Biological Researches, 2012 Based on many research studies conducted it can be concluded that there are more than 250 theories of sex-determination. This means that there is not any single theory on sex-determination. This study aims at uncovering effects of the temperature of the

Identification of general patterns of sex-biased expression in Daphnia, a genus with environmental sex determination [PDF]
, 2018 Daphnia reproduce by cyclic-parthenogenesis, where phases of asexual reproduction are intermitted by sexual production of diapause stages. This life cycle, together with environmental sex determination, allow the comparison of gene expression between ...

The mir-35 Family Links Maternal Germline Sex to Embryonic Viability in Caenorhabditis elegans
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019 The germline sex determination pathway in C. elegans determines whether germ cells develop as oocytes or sperm, with no previously known effect on viability. The mir-35 family of microRNAs are expressed in the C.
