Long-term experimental hybridisation results in the evolution of a new sex chromosome in swordtail fish

Fish have a high diversity of sex-determining systems, but the mechanisms responsible for this are not well understood. Here, Franchini et al. show how hybridization and backcrossing have led to the evolution of a new sex chromosome in swordtail fish during 30 years of experimental evolution.
