Sex Determination: Separate Sexes Are a Double Turnoff in Melons
نویسندگان
چکیده
Flowers with only one sexual function typically result from the developmental suppression of the other. A recent study that shows how this is achieved has important implications for models of the evolution of separate sexes in plants.

Searching the genome of beluga(Husohuso) for sex markers based on targeted Bulked SegregantAnalysis (BSA)
In sturgeon aquaculture, where the main purpose is caviar production, a reliable method is needed to separate fish according to gender. Currently, due to the lack of external sexual dimorphism, the fish are sexed by an invasive surgical examination of the gonads. Development of a non-invasive procedure for sexing fish based on genetic markers is of special interest. In the present study we empl...

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 ...
متن کاملSex-determining mechanisms in land plants.
Sex determination is a process that leads to the physical separation of male and female gamete-producing structures to different individuals of a species. Even though sexually reproducing species have only three possible options—to relegate the two sexes to separate individuals, to keep them together on the same individual, or to have a combination of both—plants in particular display a great v...

Objective(s):To determine the fetal discernment in suspected cases of sex linked recessive disease in the first trimester of pregnancy. Materials and Methods: After collection of 100 Chorionic Villi samples, the DNAs were extracted and baby gender was determined. Meanwhile, after increasing the sensitivity, the system was able to detect the sex of each cell which was obtained by biopsy. Resul...
