Absence of a faster-X effect in beetles ( <i>Tribolium</i> , Coleoptera)

2019-09-09

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> The faster-X effect, namely the rapid evolution of protein-coding genes on the X-chromosome, has been reported in numerous metazoans. However, the prevalence of this phenomenon across metazoans and its potential causes remain largely unresolved. Analysis of sex-biased genes may elucidate its possible mechanisms: a more pronounced faster-X effect in male-biased genes than in female-biased or un...
