Turtle Insights into the Evolution of the Reptilian Karyotype and the Genomic Architecture of Sex Determination
11 Apr 2020
Abstract excerpt
Sex chromosome evolution remains an evolutionary puzzle despite its importance in understanding sexual development and genome evolution. The seemingly random distribution of sex-determining systems in reptiles offers a unique opportunity to study sex chromosome evolution not afforded by mammals or birds. These reptilian systems derive from multiple transitions in sex determination, some independent, some...
