...Neha Ghosh; Asif Bakshi; Risha Khandelwal; Sriivatsan Govinda Rajan; Rohit Joshi ABSTRACT Highly conserved DM domain-containing transcription factors (Doublesex/MAB-3/DMRT1) are responsible for generating sexually dimorphic features. In the Drosophila central nervous system, a set of Doublesex (Dsx...

...Gavin R. Rice; Olga Barmina; David Luecke; Kevin Hu; Michelle Arbeitman; Artyom Kopp ABSTRACT The ability of a single genome to produce distinct and often dramatically different male and female forms is one of the wonders of animal development. In Drosophila melanogaster , most sexually dimorphic...

...Nicole Camara; Cale Whitworth; Abigail Dove; Mark Van Doren ABSTRACT Sex-specific development of the gonads is a key aspect of sexual dimorphism that is regulated by Doublesex/Mab3-related transcription factors (DMRTs) in diverse animal species. We find that in mutants for Drosophila dsx...

Sexual dimorphism Motoneuron development Programmed cell death Sex...

...D. Adam Mason; Jeremy S. Rabinowitz; Douglas S. Portman Although sexual dimorphism is ubiquitous in animals, the means by which sex determination mechanisms trigger specific modifications to shared structures is not well understood. In C. elegans, tail tip morphology is highly dimorphic: whereas...

...Marylène Poirié; Eva Niederer; Monica Steinmann-Zwicky ABSTRACT Male first instar larvae possess more germ cells in their gonads than female larvae of the same stage. To determine the earliest time point of sexual dimorphism in germ cell number, we have counted the germ cells of sexed embryos...

... important is the observation that both the regular and the agametic gynandromorphs exhibit defects in several other structures that are not sexually dimorphic, such as tergites and stemites ( Fig. 3 ). Complete absence of hemitergite 4 was noticed 5 times among 438 inspected half sides of regular...
