An ancient X chromosomal region harbours three genes potentially controlling sex determination in Cannabis sativa

Matteo Toscani, Afsheen Malik, Ainhoa Riera-Begue…·Rainer Melzer

The paper identifies a locus on the X chromosome in Cannabis sativa that contains three genes potentially controlling sex determination, with distinct expression patterns across monoecious and dioecious plants.
