The sex of leopard geckoes is determined by incubation temperature. This study identified their temperature-sensitive period of sex determination by incubating embryos at a male-producing temperature (32 "C) and a female-producing temperature (26 "C) for various intervals of development and comparin
## Abstract To test the hypothesis that the same (or similar) genes may be involved in chromosomal sex determination and temperature dependent sex determination we investigated the expression of the mammalian testis determining gene __SRY__ in the American alligator __(Alligator mississippiensis)__
## Abstract The leopard gecko, __Eublepharis macularius__, has temperatureβdependent sex determination (TSD). Previous reports have shown that females are produced predominately at cool incubation temperatures and males are produced predominately at warm incubation temperatures (Pattern Ib). We rep
