The phenotypic correlates and quantitative genetics of masculinization in the rodent, Octodon degus.

Heredity - 1 Sept 2017

Abstract excerpt

In some mammals, female characteristics have been shown to depend, in part, on the intrauterine position during development of female fetuses relative to male fetuses. Females developing in close proximity to males show behavioral, physiological and life history characteristics that are masculinized. With the exception of one inconclusive study, nothing is known of the genetic basis of this phenomenon. In this...
