The Sex-Determining Locus in the Tiger Pufferfish, Takifugu rubripes

The tiger pufferfish (fugu), Takifugu rubripes, is a model fish that has had its genome entirely sequenced. By performing genomewide linkage analyses, we show that the sex of fugu is determined by a single chromosomal region on linkage group 19 in an XX–XY system.
