Chronology and morphology of temperature‐dependent sex determination

Wibbels, Thane, Bull, James J., Crews, David·1991·Journal of Experimental Zoology

Abstract

Temperature sensitivity and gonadal differentiation were studied in a turtle, Trachemys scripta, with temperature‐dependent sex determination. Sex determination was sensitive to both the duration and magnitude of incubation temperature. Temperature exerted an “all or none” effect on the ovarian or testicular nature of most gonads, but affected the length of ovaries in a graded fashion. Collectively, the results indicate that sex determination is controlled by the quantitative effect of temperature during a period beginning prior to (histologically detectable) sexual differentiation and extending to a time when initial sex specific changes are evident in the gonads.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
