Heterochiasmy facilitated the establishment of <i>gsdf</i> as a novel sex determining gene in Atlantic halibut
2020-11-24
Abstract excerpt
Atlantic Halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus) has a X/Y genetic sex determination system, but the sex determining factor is not known. We produced a high-quality genome assembly and identified parts of chromosome 13 as the Y chromosome due to sequence divergence between sexes and segregation of sex genotypes in pedigrees. Linkage analysis revealed that all chromosomes exhibit heterochiasmy, i.e. male- and female re...
