The two broadest categories are genetic sex determination (GSD), in which the sex of offspring is set by a sex chromosome or an autosomal gene, and environmental sex determination (ESD), in which sex is determined by temperature (as with turtles), local sex ratio (as with some tropical fish), or population density (as with mermithid nematodes).
GSD in mammals depends (with some interesting exceptions—see [5]) upon a Y-specific dominant gene (
Molecular genetic investigations of GSD in model systems such as
These experiments show not only how a pathway can evolve, but also, importantly, how X:A and heterogametic GSD systems can be interconverted by modifying the cue that regulates a conserved molecular switch gene (the splicing of tra mRNA).
Though little is known about the molecular mechanisms of ESD, within the GSD systems many different mechanisms have been uncovered.
