Genome-Wide Analysis of Transposable Elements and Satellite DNAs in Spinacia Species to Shed Light on Their Roles in Sex Chromosome Evolution
Sex chromosome evolution has mostly been studied in species with heteromorphic sex chromosomes. The Spinacia genus serves as an ideal model for investigating evolutionary mechanisms underlying the transition from homomorphic to heteromorphic sex chromosomes. Among evolutionary factors, repetitive se...
