Testosterone differentially affects expression in the hypothalamus and the ventromedial telencephalon (VmT) of Juncos; Potential for sexual conflict assessed via testosterone-mediated transcriptional changes in peripheral tissues of a songbird

(Submitter supplied) Despite sharing much of their genomes, males and females are often highly dimorphic, reflecting at least in part the resolution of sexual conflict in response to sexually antagonistic selection. Sexual dimorphism arises owing to sex differences in gene expression, and steroid hormones are often invoked as a proximate cause of sexual dimorphism. Experimental elevation of androgens can lead to masculinization of behavior, physiology, and gene expression, but knowledge of the role of hormones remains incomplete, including how the sexes differ in their gene expression in response to exposure to hormones. more...
