Rapid de novo evolution of X chromosome dosage compensation in Silene latifolia, a plant with young sex chromosomes

Silene latifolia is a dioecious plant with heteromorphic sex chromosomes that have originated only ∼10 million years ago and is a promising model organism to study sex chromosome evolution in plants. Previous work suggests that S. latifolia XY chromosomes have gradually stopped recombining and the Y...
