Sex chromosomes in the tribe Cyprichromini (Teleostei: Cichlidae) of Lake Tanganyika by Kristen A. Behrens, Stephan Koblmüller, Thomas D. Kocher

“…Abstract Sex determining loci have been described on at least 12 of 22 chromosomes in East African cichlid fishes, indicating a high rate of sex chromosome turnover. To better understand the rates and patterns of sex chromosome replacement, we used new methods to characterize the sex chromosomes of the cichlid tribe Cyprichromini from Lake Tanganyika. …”

Independent evolution of transcriptional inactivation on sex chromosomes in birds and mammals. by Alexandra M Livernois, Shafagh A Waters, Janine E Deakin, Jennifer A Marshall Graves, Paul D Waters

“…The bird ZW sex chromosome system represents a third independently evolved amniote sex chromosome system with dosage compensation, albeit partial and gene-specific, via an unknown mechanism (i.e. upregulation of the single Z in females, down regulation of one or both Zs in males, or a combination). …”

Unraveling the Sex Chromosome Heteromorphism of the Paradoxical Frog Pseudis tocantins. by Kaleb Pretto Gatto, Carmen Silvia Busin, Luciana Bolsoni Lourenço

“…The paradoxical frog Pseudis tocantins is the only species in the Hylidae family with known heteromorphic Z and W sex chromosomes. The Z chromosome is metacentric and presents an interstitial nucleolar organizer region (NOR) on the long arm that is adjacent to a pericentromeric heterochromatic band. …”
