An unbiased approach to identify genes involved in development in a turtle with temperature-dependent sex determination

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Many reptiles exhibit temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD). The initial cue in TSD is incubation temperature, unlike genotypic sex determination (GSD) where it is determined by the presence of specific alleles (or genetic lo...
