Sexually size dimorphic brains and song complexity in passerine birds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Neural correlates of bird song involve the volume of particular song nuclei in the brain that govern song development, production, and perception. Intra- and interspecific variation in the volume of these song nuclei are associated with overall brain ...

Sexual dimorphism in autoimmunity [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2015
Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system attacks and destroys the organs and tissues of its own host. Autoimmunity is the third most common type of disease in the United States. Because there is no cure for autoimmunity, it is extremely important to study the mechanisms that trigger these diseases.

Are there sex differences in the body size of the Eurasian red squirrel in Slovakia? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Sexual dimorphism of the Eurasian red squirrel on five somatic variables (head-and-body length, tail length, hind foot length, ear length and body weight) was evaluated on 55 squirrels.

Sexual dimorphism in the South American water snake Helicops polylepis (Serpentes: Dipsadidae)

open access: yesPhyllomedusa: Journal of Herpetology, 2021
Sexual selection, fecundity selection and ecological divergence have been the main explanations proposed for the origin and maintenance of sexual dimorphism.

Sexual Dimorphism in the Chinese Endemic Species Hynobius maoershanensis (Urodela: Hynobiidae)

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Sexual dimorphism is common in most vertebrate species and has diverse manifestations. The study of sexual dimorphism has critical significance for evolutionary biological and ecological adaptation.

Stat5b Regulates Sexually Dimorphic Gene Expression in Zebrafish Liver

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Sexual size dimorphism is an interesting phenomenon occurred in many fish species. Wildtype zebrafish exhibits a significant sexual dimorphism in body size at the adult stage.

Sexual dimorphism in chronic respiratory diseases

open access: yesCell & Bioscience, 2023
Sex differences in susceptibility, severity, and progression are prevalent for various diseases in multiple organ systems. This phenomenon is particularly apparent in respiratory diseases. Asthma demonstrates an age-dependent pattern of sexual dimorphism.

Sex on the Beach: Sexual Size Dimorphism Among Aquatic Bugs (Nepomorpha) Inhabiting Different Habitats

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Aquatic bugs (Nepomorpha) are a species‐rich taxon of insects inhabiting all types of freshwaters, often at high densities, and some are among the dominant predators in aquatic food webs.

Sexual dimorphism in the loud calls of Azara’s owl monkeys (Aotus azarae): evidence of sexual selection? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Primates use different types of vocalizations in a variety of contexts. Some of the most studied types have been the long distance or loud calls. These vocalizations have been associated with mate defense, mate attraction, and resource defense, and it ...

Paternal Circadian Disruption Impairs Offspring Cognition via Sperm microRNAs

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Paternal circadian disruption remodels the sperm small RNA payload, elevating miR‐92a‐3p/miR‐25‐3p levels and perturbing early embryonic gene regulatory programs. Microinjection experiments and single‐embryo transcriptomics reveal sex‐specific developmental vulnerabilities, ultimately impairing offspring hippocampal synaptic plasticity and cognition ...
