Sex-biased gene expression at single-cell resolution: cause and consequence of sexual dimorphism
Gene expression differences between males and females are thought to be key for the
evolution of sexual dimorphism, and sex-biased genes are often used to study the molecular …

Sex‐biased gene expression in flowers, but not leaves, reveals secondary sexual dimorphism in Populus balsamifera
Because sexual dimorphism in plants is often less morphologically conspicuous than in
animals, studies of sex‐biased gene expression may provide a quantitative metric to better …

High rates of evolution preceded shifts to sex-biased gene expression in Leucadendron, the most sexually dimorphic angiosperms
Differences between males and females are usually more subtle in dioecious plants than
animals, but strong sexual dimorphism has evolved convergently in the South African Cape …
