Amniotes exhibit a diverse range of sex chromosome systems. Mammals typically employ the XX/XY system, while birds utilize the ZZ/ZW system. Reptiles present an array of systems, such as XX/XY, ZZ/ZW, and even temperature-dependent sex determination methods. The evolution of these sex chromosomes significantly differs across various amniote species. Professor Kaessmann from Heidelberg will be a featured speaker at the Max Planck Special Guest Seminar. In his talk titled "The Origins and Evolution of Amniote Sex Chromosomes," he will delve into the latest research findings on this intriguing subject. [mehr]
