A model for environmental sex reversal in fish.

Journal of theoretical biology - 21 Mar 2004

Hurley M A, Matthiessen P, Pickering A D

Abstract excerpt

A mathematical model is presented which combines genetic XX-female/XY-male sex determination with environmental pressure for phenotypic sex reversal. This may occur when fishes are exposed to endocrine disrupters, specifically masculinization by exposure to androgens and feminization by exposure to estrogens. A generic model is derived for the sex ratio in successive generations and three special cases, with...
