Evolution of Sex-Specific Traits through Changes in HOX-Dependent doublesex Expression

Almost every animal lineage is characterized by unique sex-specific traits, implying that such traits are gained and lost frequently in evolution. However, the genetic mechanisms responsible for these changes are not understood. In Drosophila, the activity of the sex determination pathway is restric...
