In organisms with the XY sex-determination system, there is an imbalance in the inheritance and transmission of the X chromosome between males and females. Unlike an autosomal allele, an X-linked recessive allele in a female will have phenotypic effects on its male counterpart. Thus, genes located on the X chromosome are of particular interest to researchers in molecular evolution and genetics. Here we present a...
