The sex of organ geometry [PDF]
NatureAbstractOrgans have a distinctive yet often overlooked spatial arrangement in the body1–5. We propose that there is a logic to the shape of an organ and its proximity to its neighbours. Here, by using volumetric scans of many Drosophila melanogaster flies, we develop methods to quantify three-dimensional features of organ shape, position and ...

Sex separation unveils the functional plasticity of the vomeronasal organ in rabbits [PDF]
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022 Chemosensory cues are vital for social and sexual behaviours and are primarily detected and processed by the vomeronasal system (VNS), whose plastic capacity has been investigated in mice.
