The signal for 'sex determination in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is the ratio between the number of X chromosomes and the number of sets of autosomes (the X/A ratio). Animals with an X/A ratio of 0.67 (a triploid with two X chromosomes) or less are males. Animals with an X/A ratio of 0.75 or

In Caenorhabditis elegans, sex is determined by the number of X chromosomes which, in turn, determines the expression of the X-linked gene xol-1. Recent work has shown that xol-1 expression is controlled by least two distinct regulatory mechanisms, one transcriptional and another post-transcriptiona
