Sex determination through X-Y heterogamety in Salix nigra

Brian J. Sanderson, Guanqiao Feng, Nan Hu, Craig H. Carlson, Lawrence B. Smart, Ken Keefover‐Ring, Tongming Yin, Tao Ma, Jianquan Liu, Stephen Paul DiFazio, Matthew S. Olson

This study identifies a novel sex-linked region in Salix nigra, demonstrating XY heterogamety and recombination suppression, with implications for understanding sex chromosome evolution in plants.

A general model to explain repeated turnovers of sex determination in the Salicaceae

Wenlu Yang, Deyan Wang, Yiling Li, Zhiyang Zhang, Shaofei Tong, Mengmeng Li, Xu Zhang, Lei Zhang, Liwen Ren, Xinzhi Ma, Ran Zhou, Brian J. Sanderson, Ken Keefover‐Ring, Tongming Yin, Lawrence B. Smart, , Tao Ma

This study identifies an XY and ZW sex determination system in two Populus species and proposes a model linking transposon activity to sex chromosome turnover.
