Genotypic sex determination enabled adaptive radiations of extinct marine reptiles.

Nature - 17 Sept 2009

Organ Chris L, Janes Daniel E, Meade Andrew, Pagel Mark

Abstract excerpt

Adaptive radiations often follow the evolution of key traits, such as the origin of the amniotic egg and the subsequent radiation of terrestrial vertebrates. The mechanism by which a species determines the sex of its offspring has been linked to critical ecological and life-history traits but not to major adaptive radiations, in part because sex-determining mechanisms do not fossilize. Here we establish a...
