I-17: The Mechanism of Gonadal Sex Determination
Background In mammals, a single exon gene SRY on the Y-chromosome is activated in the XY gonadal primordium and initiates a cascade of molecular and morphological events leading to testicular differentiation. SRY-encoded protein (SRY) is a transcription factor harboring a HMG-box DNAbinding motif that upregulates SOX9, which encodes another transcription factor sharing the DNA binding motif wit...
متن کاملSex-specific control of Sex-lethal is a conserved mechanism for sex determination in the genus Drosophila.
In D. melanogaster the binary switch gene Sex-lethal (Sxl) plays a pivotal role in somatic sex determination -- when the Sxl gene is on the female pathway is followed, while the male pathway is followed when the gene is off. In the present study we have asked whether the Sxl gene is present in other species of the genus Drosophila and whether it is subject to a similar sex-specific on-off regul...
متن کاملDifferent autosomes evolved into sex chromosomes in the sister genera of Salix and Populus
Willows (Salix) and poplars (Populus) are dioecious plants in Salicaceae family. Sex chromosome in poplar genome was consistently reported to be associated with chromosome XIX. In contrast to poplar, this study revealed that chromosome XV was sex chromosome in willow. Previous studies revealed that both ZZ/ZW and XX/XY sex-determining systems could be present in some species of Populus. In this...
متن کاملRecent Sex Chromosome Divergence despite Ancient Dioecy in the Willow Salix viminalis
Sex chromosomes can evolve when recombination is halted between a pair of chromosomes, and this can lead to degeneration of the sex-limited chromosome. In the early stages of differentiation sex chromosomes are homomorphic, and even though homomorphic sex chromosomes are very common throughout animals and plants, we know little about the evolutionary forces shaping these types of sex chromosome...
متن کاملSex determination methods in guppy (Poecilia reticulat)
Guppy, Poecilia reticulate, is a member of the Poecilidae family. This species is viviparous and one of the most popular ornamental fish in the world, whose phenotype is usually determined during the last ten days of pregnancy. However, most differentiation and development of secondary sexual traits are formed during adolescence, i.e. about 16 weeks after birth. These secondary characteristics ...
