Role of steroidogenic factor 1 and aromatase in temperature-dependent sex determination in the red-eared slider turtle.

The Journal of experimental zoology - 1 Nov 2001

Crews D, Fleming A, Willingham E, Baldwin R, Skipper J K

Abstract excerpt

Red-eared slider turtles are genetically bipotential for sex determination. In this species, as in many other reptiles, incubation temperature of the egg determines gonadal sex. At higher incubation temperatures females are produced and increasing temperature appears to increase estrogen production in the embryonic brain. Treatment of eggs incubating at a male-producing temperature with exogenous estrogen causes...
