Accelerated pseudogenization on the neo-X chromosome in Drosophila miranda
Over time, Y chromosomes tend to degenerate as their genes become non-functional and transposable elements accumulate. Here, Nozawa and colleagues investigate the novel sex chromosomes of Drosophila mirandaand show that the X chromosome also degenerates rapidly compared to autosomes.
