Transcriptomic Analysis of Tail Regeneration in the Lizard Anolis carolinensis Reveals Activation of Conserved Vertebrate Developmental and Repair Mechanisms
Lizards, which are amniote vertebrates like humans, are able to lose and regenerate a
functional tail. Understanding the molecular basis of this process would advance …

Testing the Toxicofera: comparative transcriptomics casts doubt on the single, early evolution of the reptile venom system
The identification of apparently conserved gene complements in the venom and salivary
glands of a diverse set of reptiles led to the development of the Toxicofera hypothesis–the …

Parsing parallel evolution: ecological divergence and differential gene expression in the adaptive radiations of thick‐lipped M idas cichlid fishes from N icaragua
The study of parallel evolution facilitates the discovery of common rules of diversification.
Here, we examine the repeated evolution of thick lips in M idas cichlid fishes (the A …

Gene expression of male pathway genes sox9 and amh during early sex differentiation in a reptile departs from the classical amniote model
Background Sex determination is the process whereby the bipotential embryonic gonads
become committed to differentiate into testes or ovaries. In genetic sex determination (GSD) …

Truncated jarid2 and kdm6b transcripts are associated with temperature-induced sex reversal during development in a dragon lizard
Sex determination and differentiation in reptiles are complex. In the model species, Pogona
vitticeps, high incubation temperature can cause male to female sex reversal. To elucidate …

Sex-specific splicing of Z- and W-borne nr5a1 alleles suggests sex determination is controlled by chromosome conformation
X Zhang, S Wagner, CE Holleley… - Proceedings of the …, 2022 - National Acad Sciences
Pogona vitticeps has female heterogamety (ZZ/ZW), but the master sex-determining gene is
unknown, as it is for all reptiles. We show that nr5a1 (Nuclear Receptor Subfamily 5 Group A …
