Temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD) was first discovered in reptiles. Since
then, a great diversity of sex-determining responses to temperature has been reported …

The discovery in mammals that fetal testes are required in order to develop the male
phenotype inspired research efforts to elucidate the mechanisms underlying gonadal sex …

Sex determination in vertebrates depends on the expression of a conserved network of
genes. Sea turtles such as Lepidochelys olivacea have temperature-dependent sex …

Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is a kind of GSD+ TE (genotypic sex determination with
temperature effects) fish. It is known that in some reptiles with temperature dependent sex …

Temperature sex determining species offer a model for investigating how environmental
cues become integrated to the regulation of patterning genes and growth, among bipotential …

The developing gonads constitute a valuable model for studying developmental
mechanisms because the testes and ovaries, while originating from the same primordia …

Genetic sex of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is determined by genotype (genetic sex
determination). However, these fish are temperature‐sensitive, and high‐temperature …

Despite widespread temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD) in reptiles, it is still
unclear how the molecular network responds to temperature variation and drives the sexual …

The autosomal Sry-related gene, Sox9, encodes a transcription factor, which performs an
important role in testis differentiation in mammals. In several reptiles, Sox9 is differentially …

Chameleons are a family of lizards distinguished by several unique features related to their
arboreal lifestyles, such as a ballistic tongue, skin color changes, independent movement of …
