The neurogenetics of sexually dimorphic behaviors from a postdevelopmental perspective.

Genes, brain, and behavior - 1 Feb 2020

Leitner Nicole, Ben-Shahar Yehuda

Abstract excerpt

Most sexually reproducing animal species are characterized by two morphologically and behaviorally distinct sexes. The genetic, molecular and cellular processes that produce sexual dimorphisms are phylogenetically diverse, though in most cases they are thought to occur early in development. In some species, however, sexual dimorphisms are manifested after development is complete, suggesting the intriguing...
