Sex Determination, Sex Chromosomes, and Karyotype Evolution in Insects.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2017

Blackmon Heath, Ross Laura, Bachtrog Doris

Abstract excerpt

Insects harbor a tremendous diversity of sex determining mechanisms both within and between groups. For example, in some orders such as Hymenoptera, all members are haplodiploid, whereas Diptera contain species with homomorphic as well as male and female heterogametic sex chromosome systems or paternal genome elimination. We have established a large database on karyotypes and sex chromosomes in insects,...
