The reversible sex of gonochoristic fish: insights and consequences
JF Baroiller, H d'Cotta - Sexual Development, 2016 - karger.com
Fish sex reversal is a means to understand sex determination and differentiation, but it is
also used to control sex in aquaculture. This review discusses sex reversal in gonochoristic …

Sex chromosome evolution in lizards: independent origins and rapid transitions
Reptiles epitomize the variability of reproductive and sex determining modes and
mechanisms among amniotes. These modes include gonochorism (separate sexes) and …

Restriction site-associated DNA sequencing (RAD-seq) reveals an extraordinary number of transitions among gecko sex-determining systems

Differential intron retention in Jumonji chromatin modifier genes is implicated in reptile temperature-dependent sex determination
In many vertebrates, sex of offspring is determined by external environmental cues rather
than by sex chromosomes. In reptiles, for instance, temperature-dependent sex …
