Plant Sex Determination [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2017
Sex determination is as important for the fitness of plants as it is for animals, but its mechanisms appear to vary much more among plants than among animals, and the expression of gender in plants differs in important respects from that in most animals.

Multi-genome comparisons reveal gain-and-loss evolution of anti-Mullerian hormone receptor type 2 as a candidate master sex-determining gene in Percidae

open access: yesBMC Biology
Background The Percidae family comprises many fish species of major importance for aquaculture and fisheries. Based on three new chromosome-scale assemblies in Perca fluviatilis, Perca schrenkii, and Sander vitreus along with additional percid fish ...

Involvement of gonadal soma-derived factor in the reproduction of teleosts

open access: yesAquaculture and Fisheries
Gonadal soma-derived factor (Gsdf) is a member of the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) superfamily and a teleost-specific gene. Early studies suggested that Gsdf promotes spermatogonial proliferation; however recent reports have shed light on its ...

Evidence for Variation in the Genetic Basis of Sex Determination in Brook Stickleback (Culaea inconstans)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
The genetic basis of sex determination is typically conserved within species if not within broader lineages. For example, within the stickleback family (Gasterosteidae), AmhY has been identified as a master sex‐determination (MSD) gene in multiple ...

Sry-modified laboratory rat lines to study sex-chromosome effects underlying sex differences in physiology and disease: Four Core Genotypes and more

open access: yesBiology of Sex Differences
Background Previous research on Four Core Genotypes and XY* mice has been instrumental in establishing important effects of sex-chromosome complement that cause sex differences in physiology and disease.

Use of Lateral Teleradiography in Sex Estimation for Forensic Purposes: a Systematic Review

open access: yesActa Stomatologica Croatica
Methods that use lateral teleradiography for sex estimation need to be discussed considering their feasibility and applicability in forensic cases. Purpose: The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review about the use of lateral teleradiography
