The Diversity of Plant Sex Chromosomes Highlighted through Advances in Genome Sequencing
For centuries, scientists have been intrigued by the origin of dioecy in plants, characterizing sex-specific development, uncovering cytological differences between the sexes, and developing theoretical models. Through the invention and continued improvements in genomic technologies, we have truly b...
