Integrating human responses to climate change into conservation vulnerability assessments and adaptation planning.

abstract：:In mammals, females have a pair of X chromosomes, whereas males have one X chromosome and one Y chromosome, which is much smaller and contains fewer genes than a X chromosome. One of the pair of X chromosomes is inactivated in females. The inactivated X chromosome is late-replicating, heterochromatic, and genetically ...
