Little Evidence for Demasculinization of the Drosophila X Chromosome among Genes Expressed in the Male Germline
Male-biased genes—those expressed at higher levels in males than in females—are underrepresented on the X chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster. Several evolutionary models have been posited to explain this so-called demasculinization of the X. Here, we show that the apparent paucity of male-biased...
