Genetics of sex determination: exceptions that prove the rule.
The dogma that male and female embryos develop in identical fashion until SRY initiates Sertoli cell differentiation in the hitherto bipotential gonad is in need of reevaluation in the light of data that do not fit into this scheme. One of the exceptions that proves the rule of sex determination is true hermaphroditism, the existence of individuals with both testicular and ovarian tissue. Furth...
متن کاملAd-hoc Guesting: When Exceptions Are the Rule
People’s work days are filled with exceptions to normal routine. These exceptions affect the security and privacy of their information access and sharing.

متن کاملStochasticity in the symmetric division of plant cells: when the exceptions are the rule
Long before most of the molecular aspects of cell division were uncovered, L. V. Heilbrunn remarked that: “it is easier to make a new theory of cell division than to test an old one” and promised his readers to limit his treatment of cell division to “the factual facts regarding the physical changes which take place during mitosis” (Heilbrunn, 1928). Heilbrunn’s barb was directed, first and for...
