Are TRP Channels the Thermal Switches of Temperature‐Dependent Sex Determination?
We suggest three steps to test the hypothesis that the transient receptor potential channels may respond to temperature changes, increasing the intracellular calcium concentration and triggering the phosphorylation of STAT3, which subsequently regulates male and female sex determination pathways in temperature-dependent sex determination species.
