DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9854
Abstract: Abstract Understanding genome‐wide responses to environmental conditions during embryogenesis is essential for discerning the evolution of developmental plasticity and canalization, two processes generating phenotypic variation targeted by natural selection. Here, we present the first comparative… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/pd.6322
Abstract: To examine the extent to which sex chromosomes are included in current noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) and the reporting practices with respect to fetal chromosomal sex and sex chromosome aberrations (SCAs), in addition to an… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/978-981-10-3975-1_2
Abstract: The sex of birds is determined by inheritance of sex chromosomes at fertilization. The embryo with two Z chromosomes (ZZ) develops into a male; by contrast, the embryo with Z and W chromosomes (ZW) becomes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00122-018-3127-1
Abstract: Spinach is a popular vegetable native to central and western Asia. It is dioecious with a pair of nascent sex chromosomes. The difficulties of working with the non-recombining sex determination region of XY individuals have… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00438-017-1398-x
Abstract: In the era of the diseasomes and interactome networks, linking genetics with phenotypic traits in Turner syndrome should be studied thoroughly. As a part of this stratagem, mosaicism of both X and Y chromosome which… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2018.04.069
Abstract: Many aspects of sex chromosome evolution are common to both plants and animals [1], but the process of Y chromosome degeneration, where genes on the Y become non-functional over time, may be much slower in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmg.2018.10.012
Abstract: Human infertility is a healthcare problem that has a worldwide impact. Genetic causes of human infertility include chromosomal aneuploidies and rearrangements and single-gene defects. The sex chromosomes (X and Y) are critical players in human… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jtbi.2017.08.004
Abstract: Polymorphism of alleles that benefit one sex but harm the other (sexually antagonistic alleles) generates selective pressures for reduced recombination between themselves and sex-determination loci. Such polymorphism can be maintained within a population when selection… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/d41586-020-01483-6
Abstract: Sex chromosomes must exchange genetic information at a short region during meiotic cell division. Molecular factors have now been found that alter sex-chromosome structure and enhance this exchange process. Molecular factors that enhance recombination between… read more here.

Abstract: The karyotype of most birds has remained considerably stable during more than 100 million years’ evolution, except for some groups, such as parrots. The evolutionary processes and underlying genetic mechanism of chromosomal rearrangements in parrots,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-36209-2
Abstract: In the Mexican axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum), sex is determined by a single Mendelian factor, yet its sex chromosomes do not exhibit morphological differentiation typical of many vertebrate taxa that possess a single sex-determining locus. As… read more here.
