A sex-linked SCAR marker in Bryonia dioica (Cucurbitaceae), a dioecious species with XY sex-determination and homomorphic sex chromosomes.
Genetic crosses between the dioecious Bryonia dioica (Cucurbitaceae) and the monoecious B. alba in 1903 provided the first clear evidence for Mendelian inheritance of dioecy and made B. dioica the first organism for which XY sex-determination was experimentally proven. Applying molecular tools to this system, we developed a sex-linked sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR) marker for B....
متن کاملSex chromosomes, sex determination, and sex-linked sequences in Microtidae.
The Arvicolidae is a widely distributed rodent group with several interesting characteristics in their sex chromosomes. Here, we summarize the actual knowledge of some of these characteristics. This mammalian group has species with abnormal sex determination systems. In fact, some species present the same karyotype in both males and females, with total absence of a Y chromosome, and hence of SR...
متن کاملSex Determination in Monoecious and Dioecious Plants.
Angiosperm species that produce unisexual flowers present the opportunity for separate analysis of the male and female programs for floral differentiation and gametogenesis. A vast literature describes the genetic and physiological basis of sex determination in these species. (For reviews, see Westergaard, 1958; Grant, 1975; Frankel and Galun, 1977; Durand and Durand, 1984.) Recently, it has be...
متن کاملSex chromosomes and sex determination in reptiles Commentary
Reptiles occupy a crucial position with respect to vertebrate phylogeny, having roamed the earth for more than 300 million years and given rise to both birds and mammals. To date, this group has been largely ignored by contemporary genomics technologies, although the green anole lizard was recently recommended for whole genome sequencing. Future experiments using flow-sorted chromosome librarie...
متن کاملIdentification of a sex-linked SCAR marker for Plecoglossus altivelis and its application for identifying gender in cultivated and wild populations
Ayu (Plecoglossus altivelis), one kinds of valuable cultured fish species, show almost no morphological difference between male and female until sexual maturity. Here, we report the identification of sex-linked markers for the ayu, based on Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) generated from cultured fish (15 males and 15 females) by using 63 different primer combinations. Genomic frag...
