It can be argued that the sex chromosomes are the most important pair of chromosomes given their role in determining gender and, therefore, allowing for reproduction and procreation. Considered together, sex chromosome aneuploidies are the most common chromosome abnormalities seen in liveborn infants, ...
Comparative studies of the genes involved in sex determination in the three extant classes of mammals, and other vertebrates, has allowed us to identify genes that are highly conserved in vertebrate sex determination and those that have recently evolved roles in one lineage. Analysis of the conserva...
and generally represents a transition from gonochorism to hermaphroditism (as in the androdioeciousCaenorhabditis elegans), likely due to selection for reproductive assurance rather than the reverse direction of change2,9,10,11. In animals, transitions from hermaphroditic ancestors to androdioecy ...

“high” and/or by naming the SCA. Less than 50% of all pregnant women receive NIPT according to respondents from three Australian states, China, Israel, Singapore, Thailand and 24 of 31 European countries. However, this percentage, the genomic coverage of NIPT and its application as primary...
At this stage the sex chromosomes are still separate, the X and the Y each forming what appears to be its own vesicle. The X and the Y then move together until they are included in the one large vesicle at pachytene (plate II, figs. i, 2 and 4). The vesicle surrounding the sex ...
and V chromosomes will be favoured, as will accumulation of female-beneficial loci on the W and U. Thus, the NRSC becomes more and more specialized to code for very specific sex characteristics, while losing most of its original gene content due to lack of recombination (Fig.2). However, ...
Loss and gain of genes in the sex-determining region To study the loss and gain of genes in the SDR, complete sequencing of the SDR and its X or Z counterpart would provide the ultimate resolution. However, nearly all de novo genome sequencing projects were carried out using the homogameti...
