Sex is determined by temperature during embryogenesis in snapping turtles, Chelydra
serpentina. Previous studies in this species show that dihydrotestosterone (DHT) induces …

Modes of sex determination are quite variable in vertebrates. The developmental decision to
form a testis or an ovary can be influenced by one gene, several genes, environmental …

Many reptiles display temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD), in which the primary
sex is determined by incubation temperatures rather than sex chromosomes. However …

Temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD) is a prime example of phenotypic plasticity
in that gonadal sex is determined by the temperature of the incubating egg. In the red-eared …

Temperature sex determining species offer a model for investigating how environmental
cues become integrated to the regulation of patterning genes and growth, among bipotential …

The red-eared slider turtle (Trachemys scripta) possesses temperature-dependent sex
determination (TSD) in which the incubation temperature determines gonadal sex. Although …

ABSTRACT KDM6B-mediated epigenetic modification of the testicular regulator Dmrt1 has
previously been identified as the primary switch of the male pathway in a temperature …

Sex steroids are involved in sex determination in almost all vertebrates, including species
with temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD). It is well established that aromatase …

Temperature‐dependent sex‐determination (TSD) is a phenomenon that has been
characterized at the ecological, morphological, and endocrinological levels in some reptilian …

Many reptiles, including the red‐eared slider turtle (Trachemys scripta), possess a
temperature‐dependent sex determination (TSD) mechanism where the temperature at …
