Assigning sex to pre-adult stalk-eyed flies using genital disc morphology and X chromosome zygosity [PDF]

, 2006
Background: In stalk-eyed flies ( Diopsidae) the eyes and antennae are laterally displaced at the ends of elongated eyestalks. Eyespan and the degree of sexual dimorphism in eyespan vary considerably between species and several sexually dimorphic species

6-Benzylaminopurine (BAP) and Methyl Jasmonate (MeJa) Affect Sex Expression, Flowering Time and Flowering Intensity in Cultivated Yam Dioscorea rotundata (Poir.)

Applied Biosciences
Cultivated yam (Dioscorea rotundata) is a staple tuber crop in West Africa which is mainly vegetatively propagated. Although the majority of yam cultivars flower, the control of their sexual reproduction remains largely unknown despite its importance for

Harnessing Sex Reversion via Chemical Intervention in Cannabis sativa L.

Plants
Cannabis sativa is a multipurpose dioecious species whose crop performance is governed by sex expression. Although sex is genetically determined by an X/Y chromosome system, plants can develop flowers of the opposite sex through sex reversion, commonly ...

Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Transcriptional regulation of dosage compensation in Carica papaya

Scientific Reports, 2021
Sex chromosome evolution results in the disparity in gene content between heterogametic sex chromosomes and creates the need for dosage compensation to counteract the effects of gene dose imbalance of sex chromosomes in males and females. It is not known
