## Abstract Some previous studies indicate that the local hydric environment may influence sex determination in turtles with temperature‐dependent sex determination. In this study, the effect of a daily application of 0.77 mL of ddH~2~0 per egg using an incubation temperature of 29.1Β°C was examined

In embryos of different reptile species, incubation temperature triggers a cascade of endocrine events that lead to gonad sex differentiation. The cellular and molecular mechanisms by which temperature sets in motion this process are still controversial. Here, we begin evaluating the possible partic

## Abstract A brief review of our current understanding (or lack of understanding) of the molecular basis of temperature‐dependent sex determination (TSD) in reptiles is presented.

The extent to which variation within and between the sexes can be assigned to genes vs. environment is problematic, because, in most vertebrates, males and females differ genetically. However, factors other than sex chromosomes and the consequent sex-typical gonadal hormone secretions may play impor
