Plant sex chromosomes: lost genes with little compensation.

Authors: Toups, M., Veltsos, P. and Pannell, J.R.

Journal: Curr Biol

Volume: 25

Issue: 10

Pages: R427-R430

eISSN: 1879-0445

DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2015.03.054

Abstract:

In many animals, gene loss on Y chromosomes is compensated through altered expression of their X-chromosome homologue. Now, however, a new study in plants finds that even genes deleted from the Y show no dosage compensation.
