Hybrid sterility in the heterogametic sex is a common feature of speciation in animals. In house mice, the contribution of the Mus musculus musculus X chromosome to hybrid male sterility is large. It is not known, however, whether F1 male sterility is caused by X-Y or X-autosome incompatibilities or a combination of both. We investigated the contribution of the M. musculus domesticus Y chromoso...
Despite its function in sex determination and its role in driving genome evolution, the Y chromosome remains poorly understood in most species. Y chromosomes are gene-poor, repeat-rich and largely heterochromatic and therefore represent a difficult target for genetic engineering. The Y chromosome of the human malaria vector Anopheles gambiae appears to be involved in sex determination although ...
We report a comparison of worldwide genetic variation among 255 individuals by using autosomal, mitochondrial, and Y-chromosome polymorphisms. Variation is assessed by use of 30 autosomal restriction-site polymorphisms (RSPs), 60 autosomal short-tandem-repeat polymorphisms (STRPs), 13 Alu-insertion polymorphisms and one LINE-1 element, 611 bp of mitochondrial control-region sequence, and 10 Y-c...
Genetic sex determination in an XX-XY chromosome system can be realized through a locus on the Y chromosome that makes the undifferentiated gonad develop into a testis. Although this mechanism is widespread, only in two cases so far have the corresponding master male sex-determining genes been identified. One is Sry, which initiates testes determination in most mammals. The other is dmrt1bY (sy...
A collaborative work was carried out by the Spanish and Portuguese ISFG Working Group (GEP-ISFG) to estimate Y-STR mutation rates. Seventeen Y chromosome STR loci (DYS19, DYS385, DYS389I and II, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, DYS393, DYS437, DYS438, DYS439, DYS460, DYS461, DYS635 [GATA C4], GATA H4, and GATA A10) were analyzed in a sample of 3,026 father/son pairs. Among 27,029 allele transfers, 54 mu...
The extent of genetic degeneration of the nec-Y chromosome of Drosophila americana ama'cana has been investigated. Three loci, coding for the enzymes enolase, phosphoglycerate kinase and alcohol dehydrogenase, have been localized to chromosome 4 of D. a. americunu, which forms the neo-Y and neo-X chromosomes. Crosses between D. a. americana, and D. virilis or D. montana showed that the loci cod...
In Drosophila miranda, the larval cuticle protein (Lcp) genes are located on the X2 and Y chromosomes, while in other Drosophila species the Lcp genes are inherited on the autosomes. We chose the D. miranda species as a model system to analyze the molecular bases of Y chromosome degeneration, a phenomenon observed in many species. DNA sequence analysis of the Y chromosomal Lcp gene locus reveal...
In mammals, the Y chromosome plays the pivotal role in male sex determination and is essential for normal sperm production. Yet only three Y chromosomes have been completely sequenced to date--those of human, chimpanzee, and rhesus macaque. While Y chromosomes are notoriously difficult to sequence owing to their highly repetitive genomic landscapes, these dedicated sequencing efforts have gener...
Male factor infertility often happened in patients with varicocele and genetic disorder. Microsurgical varicocele is the most effective and safe treatment option for male infertility in patients with varicocele. Y chromosome microdeletions and chromosomal abnormalities are the two types of genetic disorder. Now we could use commercial detection kits through PCR amplification of selected regions...
