Transitions in the heterogamety of sex chromosomes (eg, XY to ZW or vice versa)
fundamentally alter the genetic basis of sex determination, however the details of these …

Summary The Salicaceae, including Populus and Salix, are dioecious perennials that utilize
different sex determination systems. This family provides a useful system to better …

Secondary chemistry often differs between sexes in dioecious plant species, a pattern
attributed to its possible role in the evolution and/or maintenance of dioecy. We used GC-MS …

In the Vetrix clade of Salix, a genus of woody flowering plants, sex determination involves
chromosome 15, but an XY system has changed to a ZW system. We studied the detailed …

Poplar and willow species in the Salicaceae are dioecious, yet have been shown to use
different sex determination systems located on different chromosomes. Willows in the …

Many studies have highlighted the complex and diverse basis for heterosis in inbred crops.
Despite the lack of a consensus model, it is vital that we turn our attention to understanding …

Transitions in the heterogamety of sex chromosomes (eg XY to ZW or vice versa) are rare
and fundamentally alter the genetic basis of sex determination. Although in an XY-> ZW …

The cytokinin signaling pathway is important for plant growth and development. To
understand the regulatory process, a type A response regulator, SmRR5, in Salix …

The Salicaceae family is of growing interest in the study of dioecy in plants because the sex
determination region (SDR) has been shown to be highly dynamic, with differing locations …
