Understanding plant sex chromosomes involves studying interactions between
developmental and physiological genetics, genome evolution, and evolutionary ecology. We …

Sex chromosomes display remarkable diversity and variability among vertebrates.
Compared with research on the X/Y and Z/W chromosomes, which have long evolutionary …

Research initiatives undertaken in response to disease outbreaks accelerate our
understanding of microbial evolution, mechanisms of virulence and resistance, and plant …

The evolution of sex chromosomes can involve recombination suppression sometimes

Sex chromosomes have evolved independently in many different plant lineages. Here, we
describe reference genomes for spinach (Spinacia oleracea) X and Y haplotypes by …

Plants have evolved sex chromosomes independently in many lineages, and loss of
separate sexes can also occur. In this study, we assembled a monoecious recently …

Some plants have massive sex-linked regions. To test hypotheses about their evolution, we
sequenced the genome of Silene latifolia, in which giant heteromorphic sex chromosomes …

Subgenome dominance after whole-genome duplication generates distinction in gene
number and expression at the level of chromosome sets, but it remains unclear how this …
