DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9671
Abstract: Abstract Sexual antagonism is thought to be an important selective force in multiple evolutionary processes, but very few examples of the genes involved are known. Such a deficit of loci could partially be explained by… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/genetics/iyaa015
Abstract: Sex and sexual differentiation are pervasive across the tree of life. Because females and males often have substantially different functional requirements, we expect selection to differ between the sexes. Recent studies in diverse species, including… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rspb.2021.2314
Abstract: Mutations with beneficial effects in one sex can have deleterious effects in the other. Such ‘sexually antagonistic’ (SA) variants contribute to variation in life-history traits and overall fitness, yet their genomic distribution is poorly resolved.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rspb.2022.2484
Abstract: Genetic variance (VG) in fitness related traits is often unexpectedly high, evoking the question how VG can be maintained in the face of selection. Sexually antagonistic (SA) selection favouring alternative alleles in the sexes is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rstb.2021.0205
Abstract: Intralocus sexually antagonistic selection occurs when an allele is beneficial to one sex but detrimental to the other. This form of selection is thought to be key to the evolution of sex chromosomes but is… read more here.

The Guppy Sex Chromosome System and the Sexually Antagonistic Polymorphism Hypothesis for Y Chromosome Recombination Suppression

DOI: 10.3390/genes9050264
Abstract: Sex chromosomes regularly evolve suppressed recombination, distinguishing them from other chromosomes, and the reason for this has been debated for many years. It is now clear that non-recombining sex-linked regions have arisen in different ways… read more here.
