Sex-antagonistic genes, XY recombination and feminized Y chromosomes.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Mar 2018

Cavoto E, Neuenschwander S, Goudet J, Perrin N

Abstract excerpt

The canonical model of sex-chromosome evolution predicts that sex-antagonistic (SA) genes play an instrumental role in the arrest of XY recombination and ensuing Y chromosome degeneration. Although this model might account for the highly differentiated sex chromosomes of birds and mammals, it does not fit the situation of many lineages of fish, amphibians or nonavian reptiles, where sex chromosomes are maintained...
