I-18: The Role of Sex Chromosomes in Female Germ Cell Differentiation
Background When gonadal sex reversal occurs in mammalian species, the resultant XX males and XY females become infertile or subfertile, suggesting critical roles of sex chromosomes in germ cell differentiation. The objective of our study is to clarify the mechanism of infertility in the B6.YTIR (XY) sex-reversed female mouse, which can be attributed to a failure in the second meiotic division i...
متن کاملEvolution and Survival on Eutherian Sex Chromosomes
Since the two eutherian sex chromosomes diverged from an ancestral autosomal pair, the X has remained relatively gene-rich, while the Y has lost most of its genes through the accumulation of deleterious mutations in nonrecombining regions. Presently, it is unclear what is distinctive about genes that remain on the Y chromosome, when the sex chromosomes acquired their unique evolutionary rates, ...
متن کاملSex chromosomes in land plants.
Sex chromosomes in land plants can evolve as a consequence of close linkage between the two sex determination genes with complementary dominance required to establish stable dioecious populations, and they are found in at least 48 species across 20 families. The sex chromosomes in hepatics, mosses, and gymnosperms are morphologically heteromorphic. In angiosperms, heteromorphic sex chromosomes ...
متن کاملSignatures of sex-antagonistic selection on recombining sex chromosomes.
Sex-antagonistic (SA) selection has major evolutionary consequences: it can drive genomic change, constrain adaptation, and maintain genetic variation for fitness. The recombining (or pseudoautosomal) regions of sex chromosomes are a promising setting in which to study SA selection because they tend to accumulate SA polymorphisms and because recombination allows us to deploy the tools of molecu...
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...
