AbstractEcological studies of marine invertebrates lacking external sexual dimorphism have often overlooked potential roles of sex and sex determination systems. Yet sex-dependent effects can influence ecological outcomes for many species, including keystone echinoderms like the sunflower sea star (Pycnopodia helianthoides), which can play important roles in maintaining marine biodiversity. Although DNA...
