The evolution of the Y chromosome • Daniel Bellott and Henrik Kaessmann on the evolution of the Y chromosome. • Reprieve for men: Y chromosome is not vanishing • The sex chromosome has been shrinking throughout mammalian evolution, but many of its remaining genes play crucial roles beyond sex determination. • Nature 24 April 2014 doi:10.1038/nature.2014.15103 • http://www.nature.com/news/reprieve-f... • References • 1.
