Genetic networks and epigenetic mechanisms of temperature-dependent sex determination in the red-eared slider turtle, Trachemys scripta
In the red-eared slider turtle, Trachemys scripta, gonadal sex is determined by the incubation temperature during the mid-trimester of development; temperature effects can be overridden by exogenous ligands if they are administered during the temperature-sensitive period of development. How the phys...
