XX/XY System of Sex Determination in the Geophilomorph Centipede Strigamia maritima.

XX/XY System of Sex Determination in the Geophilomorph Centipede Strigamia maritima.

We show that the geophilomorph centipede Strigamia maritima possesses an XX/XY system of sex chromosomes, with males being the heterogametic sex. This is, to our knowledge, the first report of sex chromosomes in any geophilomorph centipede. Using the recently assembled Strigamia genome sequence, we...
