Three genomes in the algal genus Volvox reveal the fate of a haploid sex-determining region after a transition to homothallism

Transitions between separate sexes (dioecy) and other mating systems are common across eukaryotes. Here, we study a change in a haploid dioecious green algal species with male- and female-determining chromosomes (U and V). The genus Volvox is an oogamous (with large, immotile female gametes and smal...
