The African Bullfrog ( <i>Pyxicephalus adspersus</i> ) genome unites the two ancestral ingredients for making vertebrate sex chromosomes

2018-05-24

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Heteromorphic sex chromosomes have evolved repeatedly among vertebrate lineages despite largely deleterious reductions in gene dose. Understanding how this gene dose problem is overcome is hampered by the lack of genomic information at the base of tetrapods and comparisons across the evolutionary history of vertebrates. To address this problem, we produced a chromosome-level genome assembly for...
