A Genome-Wide Association Meta-Analysis of Circulating Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin Reveals Multiple Loci Implicated in Sex Steroid Hormone Regulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) is a glycoprotein responsible for the transport and biologic availability of sex steroid hormones, primarily testosterone and estradiol.

Simple and robust sex determination in papaya (Carica papaya L.) cultivars using SCAR marker

open access: yesHorticultural Science
For viable papaya production, more hermaphrodite plants are needed than male and female (though they produce inferior fruits). To this end, the sex of the plants must be ascertained early in their growth cycle, which is not possible with conventional ...

Highly sex specific gene expression in Jojoba

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2023
Background Dioecious plants have male and female flowers on separate plants. Jojoba is a dioecious plant that is drought-tolerant and native to arid areas.

Evolution of sex-biased gene expression in a dioecious plant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Separate sexes and sex-biased gene expression have repeatedly evolved in animals and plants, but the underlying changes in gene expression remain unknown.

Sex, sex chromosomes and gene expression

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2011
The X chromosome has fewer testis-specific genes than autosomes in many species. This bias is commonly attributed to X inactivation in spermatogenesis but a recent paper in BMC Biology provides evidence against X inactivation in Drosophila and proposes ...

Sex-Specific Selection and Sex-Biased Gene Expression in Humans and Flies. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2016
Sexual dimorphism results from sex-biased gene expression, which evolves when selection acts differently on males and females. While there is an intimate connection between sex-biased gene expression and sex-specific selection, few empirical studies have

Sex Hormones Regulate SHANK Expression

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) have a higher prevalence in male individuals compared to females, with a ratio of affected boys compared to girls of 4:1 for ASD and 11:1 for Asperger syndrome.

Sex-specific embryonic gene expression in species with newly evolved sex chromosomes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2014
Sex chromosome dosage differences between females and males are a significant form of natural genetic variation in many species. Like many species with chromosomal sex determination, Drosophila females have two X chromosomes, while males have one X and ...

Relationship Between Gender and Performance on Emotion Perception Tasks in a Latino Population

open access: yesInternational Journal of Psychological Research, 2021
Basic emotions are universally recognized, although differences across cultures and between genders have been described. We report results in two emotion recognition tasks, in a sample of healthy adults from Chile.

Face aftereffects demonstrate interdependent processing of expression and sex and of expression and race.

open access: yes, 2010
An important issue for face processing is the extent to which invariant aspects of faces (e.g. identity, sex, race) and changeable social signals (e.g. expressions) are processed interdependently.
