Transitions in sex determination and sex chromosomes across vertebrate species
Despite the prevalence of sexual reproduction across eukaryotes, there is a remarkable
diversity of sex‐determination mechanisms. The underlying causes of this diversity remain …

Identification of a candidate sex determination gene in Culaea inconstans suggests convergent recruitment of an Amh duplicate in two lineages of stickleback
Sex chromosomes vary greatly in their age and levels of differentiation across the tree of life.
This variation is largely due to the rates of sex chromosome turnover in different lineages; …
