Vertebrate Sex Chromosomes presents a comprehensive overview of the structure, function, and evolution of sex chromosomes across a wide range of vertebrate species. Originally published as a special issue of Cytogenetic and Genome Research in 2002, this volume compiles contributions from leading researchers in the field of cytogenetics, focusing on the diversity and specialization of sex chromosome systems in mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fishes.

The book delves into key topics such as the molecular mechanisms of sex determination, X and Y chromosome differentiation, dosage compensation, meiotic behavior, and the role of epigenetics. Comparative studies across taxa highlight both conserved and unique patterns of sex chromosome evolution, offering insights into genetic and chromosomal adaptations.

This scholarly collection serves as a valuable resource for researchers and students in genetics, evolutionary biology, developmental biology, and related disciplines interested in the chromosomal basis of sex determination and differentiation in vertebrates.
