High elevation increases the risk of Y chromosome loss in Alpine skink populations with sex reversal.

Heredity - 1 May 2021

Dissanayake Duminda S B, Holleley Clare E, Deakin Janine E, Georges Arthur

Abstract excerpt

The view that has genotypic sex determination and environmental sex determination as mutually exclusive states in fishes and reptiles has been contradicted by the discovery that chromosomal sex and environmental influences can co-exist within the same species, hinting at a continuum of intermediate states. Systems where genes and the environment interact to determine sex present the opportunity for sex reversal...
