Endosymbionts interacting with sex-determining genes and processes

Current Opinion in Insect Science
Insects are rich in reproductive diversity and in maternally inherited symbionts. Maternal inheritance has selected for a suite of microbial mechanisms that enhance host fitness and skew sex ratios in favor of females. Recently, there has been significant progress in characterizing the genetic and cellular mechanisms that these maternally transmitted ...

A new application of morphometric variables and image processing to determine day-old chicken sex

Journal of Applied Research and Technology, 2022
One of the principal activities in the poultry industry is determine the sex of chickens of one day old. In this paper, we present a non-invasive technique to determine the sex of day-old chickens based on image processing algorithms. The technique analyzes morphometrical attributes from chicken using the slow and rapid growth of primary and secondary ...

Sex-specific splicing occurs genome-wide during early Drosophila embryogenesis

eLife, 2023
Sex-specific splicing is an essential process that regulates sex determination and drives sexual dimorphism. Yet, how early in development widespread sex-specific transcript diversity occurs was unknown because it had yet to be studied at the genome-wide

Sex determination using mastoid process length in dry skulls of Nigerian population

MOJ Anatomy & Physiology, 2020
Introduction: Identification of an individual is very crucial in any medicolegal investigation. Age, sex and stature are the primary factors that help in the identification. Skull is important in this regard as it resists adverse environmental conditions over time.

MASTOID PROCESS – A TOOL FOR SEX DETERMINATION, AN ANATOMICAL STUDY IN SOUTH INDIAN SKULLS

International Journal of Biomedical Research, 2013
Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the use of mastoid process as a tool for sex determination in unidentified skeleton. Methods: Eighty (40 male and 40 female) complete undamaged skulls of known sex in book record were used for the study. Eight different measurements on the right mastoid of each skull were recorded.

Genomic Diversity and Clinical Variability in Pediatric Primary Cutaneous Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma: A Case Series

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (pcALCL) is a rare pediatric CD30‐positive T‐cell lymphoproliferative disorder with an excellent prognosis, but its genomic drivers are poorly defined. We report three children with skin‐limited disease demonstrating striking molecular heterogeneity, including NPM::ALK, NUP214::FRK, and a novel ...

Genome-wide association mapping uncovers sex-associated copy number variation markers and female hemizygous regions on the W chromosome in Salix viminalis

BMC Genomics, 2021
Background Sex chromosomes are in some species largely undifferentiated (homomorphic) with restricted sex determination regions. Homomorphic but different sex chromosomes are found in the closely related genera Populus and Salix indicating flexible sex ...
