Methods of transcriptional profiling have made it possible to compare gene expression
between females and males on a genome-wide scale. Such studies have revealed that sex …

The profound differences in gene expression between the sexes are increasingly used to
study the molecular basis of sexual dimorphism, sexual selection and sexual conflict …

INTRODUCTION Control of mosquito vectors has historically proven to be an effective
means of eliminating malaria. Human malaria is transmitted only by mosquitoes in the genus …

INTRODUCTION Sex differences are widespread in humans and other mammals. For
example, the distribution of height or body size is shifted upwards in males relative to …

Contrary to classic theory prediction, sex-chromosome homomorphy is prevalent in the
animal kingdom but it is unclear how ancient homomorphic sex chromosomes avoid …

The profound and pervasive differences in gene expression observed between males and
females, and the unique evolutionary properties of these genes in many species, have led to …

Sexual dimorphism is one of the most prevalent, and often the most extreme, examples of
phenotypic variation within species, and arises primarily from genomic variation that is …

A faster rate of adaptive evolution of X‐linked genes compared with autosomal genes can
be caused by the fixation of recessive or partially recessive advantageous mutations, due to …

There are many differences in brain structure and function between males and females.
However, how these differences were manifested during development and maintained …

Males and females often have marked phenotypic differences, and the expression of these
dissimilarities invariably involves sex differences in gene expression. Sex-biased gene …
