The evolutionary causes and consequences of sex-biased gene expression
J Parsch, H Ellegren - Nature Reviews Genetics, 2013 - nature.com
Females and males often differ extensively in their physical traits. This sexual dimorphism is
largely caused by differences in gene expression. Recent advances in genomics, such as …

Diversity and dynamics of the Drosophila transcriptome
Animal transcriptomes are dynamic, with each cell type, tissue and organ system expressing
an ensemble of transcript isoforms that give rise to substantial diversity. Here we have …
