Abstract

The genomic organization of the medaka fish Y chromosome, which is one of the youngest heterogametic sex chromosomes on which molecular data are available is studied. It is observed that more ancestral structure of the medaka Y is conserved and insights into some of the initial processes of Y chromosome evolution is provided.
