Molecular evolution of Drosophila Sex-lethal and related sex determining genes
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Sex determining mechanisms are evolutionarily labile and related species often use different primary signals and gene regulatory networks. This is well illustrated by the sex determining cascade of <it>Drosophila </it>fru...
