(2024) Caenorhabditis nigoni has robust, canalized sex determination in both germ line and soma. Genetics https://doi.org/10.1093/genetics/iyae207 Van Goor, J., Turdiev, A., Speir, S.J., Manning, J., and Haag, E.S. (2025). Male secreted short (MSS) glycoproteins link sperm competition to the reproductive isolation of species. Current Biology 35: p911-917.e5 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2024.12.040 |
Restoration of MSS to C. briggsae enables sperm invasion, the likely mechanism by which it also enhances competitiveness. See Van Goor, Turdiev et al. (2025)
