Genomic degradation of a young Y chromosome in Drosophila miranda
BACKGROUND: Y chromosomes are derived from ordinary autosomes and degenerate because of a lack of recombination. Well-studied Y chromosomes only have few of their original genes left and contain little information about their evolutionary origin. Here, we take advantage of the recently formed neo-Y...
