Experimental evolution of the Caenorhabditis elegans sex determination pathway.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jan 2012

Abstract excerpt

Sex determination is a critical developmental decision with major ecological and evolutionary consequences, yet a large variety of sex determination mechanisms exist and we have a poor understanding of how they evolve. Theoretical and empirical work suggest that compensatory adaptations to mutations in genes involved in sex determination may play a role in the evolution of these pathways. Here, we directly...
