Highlights

  • Complex connections

    Optogenetics reveals that interactions between the basal ganglia and the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN), a region that has a central role in motor control, are more complex than previously thought.

    Fast evolutionary turnover and overlapping variances of sex-biased gene expression patterns defy a simple binary sex classification of somatic tissues

    Chen Xie, Sven Künzel, Diethard Tautz
    Sex-biased gene expression in the body organs evolves rapidly, supporting a mosaic model of maleness and femaleness across tissues and thus challenging binary views of sex characteristics in mammals.
