Y-chromosome Degeneration due to Speciation and Founder Effect.

Acta biotheoretica - 31 May 2024

Zhang Nianqin, Zhang Yongjun

Abstract excerpt

The Y chromosome in the XY sex-determination system is often shorter than its X counterpart, a condition attributed to degeneration after Y recombination ceases. Contrary to the traditional view of continuous, gradual degeneration, our study reveals stabilization within large mating populations. In these populations, we demonstrate that both mutant and active alleles on the Y chromosome can reach equilibrium...
