Heredity - 1 Nov 2010

Abstract excerpt
Sex determination mechanisms (SDMs) show striking diversity and appear to evolve rapidly. Although interspecific comparisons and studies of ongoing major transitions in sex determination (such as the establishment of new sex chromosomes) have shed light on how SDMs evolve, comparatively little attention has been paid to intraspecific variation with less drastic effects. In this study, I used mutant strains...
