The gender difference in cancer susceptibility is one of the most consistent findings in
cancer epidemiology. Hematologic malignancies are generally more common in males and …

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 …

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 …

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 …

Sexual dimorphism is a substantial contributor to the diversity observed in nature, extending
from elaborate traits to the expression level of individual genes. Sexual conflict and sexually …

Sex chromosomes originate from autosomes. The accumulation of sexually antagonistic
mutations on protosex chromosomes selects for a loss of recombination and sets in motion …

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 …

Males and females of the same species share the majority of their genomes, yet they are
frequently exposed to conflicting selection pressures. Gene regulation is widely assumed to …
