We annotated six of these Y-linked genes ( kl-2, kl-3, kl-5, Ory, Pp1-Y2 and Ppr-Y ). The WGS sequence data were generated from clone libraries made from mixed-sex populations, so the male Y chromosome is represented by a four-fold lower density of sequence reads than the autosomes.
Microsatellite loci distributed across all autosomes and the X chromosome were typed using a modified version of the protocol of Love and colleagues [ 49] and Dietrich and colleagues [ 23] described in detail at [ 50].
The density of full-length L1s (with and without TSDs) on the sex chromosomes is also more than twice as high as on the autosomes; this may be a simple consequence of the lower recombination potential on the sex chromosomes as reported by Boissinot et al.
We previously generated a physical map of the major autosomes [ 11].
According to theory, a pair of autosomes can evolve into sex chromosomes by mutation of a control gene [ 4].
