Elucidating the molecular network underlying temperature-dependent sex determination in the red-eared slider turtle, Trachemys scripta

Components of the molecular pathway underlying gonadogenesis in organisms with temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD) have been retained from genetic sex determination. Furthermore, although much of this network has been conserved, new functions for these genes have evolved in this different...
