The evolution of sex determination associated with a chromosomal inversion, Published online: 11 January 2019; doi:10.1038/s41467-018-08014-y

Turnovers in sex determination systems occur quite frequently, yet the evolutionary drivers of these turnovers are not well understood. Here, the authors study the sex determination systems in sticklebacks and propose chromosomal inversions as a possible driver of the evolution of sex determination.
