  • Title: Plant evolution: modern sex chromosomes.
    Author: Charlesworth D.
    Journal: Curr Biol; 2004 Apr 06; 14(7):R271-3. PubMed ID: 15062119.
    Abstract:
    The first detailed map has been produced of a plant chromosome carrying sex-determining genes. The new data show that, in papaya, these genes lie in a quite extensive non-recombining region. This region is nevertheless a small part of the papaya genome compared with other male-specific genome regions, such as mammalian Y chromosomes.
