Abstract excerpt
Despite the importance of Y-chromosomes in evolution and sex determination, their heterochromatic, repeat-rich nature makes them difficult to sequence and genetically manipulate, and therefore they generally remain poorly understood. For example, the D. melanogaster Y-chromosome, one of the best understood, is widely heterochromatic and composed mainly of highly repetitive sequences, with only a handful of expres...
