Recessive male-determining genes

Cell

Abstract

The autosomal dominant gene polled (P) causes hornlessness in goats. Chromosomal females (XX) that are P/P homozygotes develop testes or ovotestes. Thus with respect to its testis-determining properties, P or a closely linked gene acts as an autosomal recessive. Polled intersex goats are H-Y+. This finding is consistent with the view that there may be a cluster of testis-determining H-Y genes on the Y chromosome, and that translocation of a subcritical portion of these genes may generate a recessive mode of sex determination.
