Expanding the classical paradigm: what we have learnt from vertebrates about sex chromosome evolution
Until recently, the field of sex chromosome evolution has been dominated by the canonical
unidirectional scenario, first developed by Muller in 1918. This model postulates that sex …

Sex differentiation in amphibians: effect of temperature and its influence on sex reversal
A Ruiz-García, ÁS Roco, M Bullejos - Sexual Development, 2021 - karger.com
The role of environmental factors in sexual differentiation in amphibians is not new. The
