Abstract:
... In forensics, DNA plays an important role to link the victim and accused to the scene of a crime. It also identifies the gender in missing person identifications, mass disaster cases, and helps in the analysis of samples of sexual assault. The presence of the Y chromosome in a sample determines that it is of a male person. Modern multiplex STR kits have amelogenin locus as a gender-determining mar ...

Abstract:
... Channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) is an important aquaculture species worldwide. Although studies of the sex determination mechanism of channel catfish began during the 1980s, the mechanism and sex-specific genes remain unclear. In this study, based on the results of sex-related quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping and targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) technique, 13 male-specific sin ...

Uniparental genetic systems are unique sex indicators and complement the study of autosomal diversity by providing landmarks of human migrations that repeatedly shaped the structure of extant populations. Our knowledge of the variation of the male-specific region of the Y chromosome in Native Americans is still rather scarce and scattered, but by merging sequence information from modern and ancien ...

However, key information on the breeding sex determination system (SDS) remains poorly understood, hampering sex control programs and genetic improvement. In this study, the jade perch SDS was examined by investigating genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SN ...

Y-SNPs with recurrent mutation can be seen in different Y-chromosomal haplogroups, which might help discri ...

Nevertheless, a handful of rodents harbor so-called unusual sex-determining systems. While in some spec ...
