Sex reversal and primary sex ratios in the common frog (Rana temporaria).

Molecular ecology - 1 May 2010

Alho Jussi S, Matsuba Chikako, Merilä Juha

Abstract excerpt

Sex reversal has been suggested to have profound implications for the evolution of sex chromosomes and population dynamics in ectotherms. Occasional sex reversal of genetic males has been hypothesized to prevent the evolutionary decay of nonrecombining Y chromosomes caused by the accumulation of deleterious mutations. At the same time, sex reversals can have a negative effect on population growth rate. Here, we...
