In Vitro Comparison of Sex-Specific Splicing Efficiencies of <i>fem</i> Pre-mRNA under Monoallelic and Heteroallelic Conditions of <i>csd</i>, a Master Sex-Determining Gene in the Honeybee

In Vitro Comparison of Sex-Specific Splicing Efficiencies of <i>fem</i> Pre-mRNA under Monoallelic and Heteroallelic Conditions of <i>csd</i>, a Master Sex-Determining Gene in the Honeybee

The sexual fate of honeybees is determined by the complementary sex determination (CSD) model: heterozygosity at a single locus (the CSD locus) determines femaleness, while hemizygosity or homozygosity at the CSD locus determines maleness. The <i>csd</i> gene encodes a splicing factor th...
