Sex, sex chromosomes and gene expression
<p>Abstract</p> <p>The X chromosome has fewer testis-specific genes than autosomes in many species. This bias is commonly attributed to X inactivation in spermatogenesis but a recent paper in <it>BMC Biology </it>provides evidence against X inactivation in <it>Dro...
