Recurrent sex chromosome turnover mediated by distinct ARR17 and PISTILLATA duplications in willows
The turnover events involving intact ARR17 and partial PI duplications in the 15ZW clade I species involve pericentromeric regions that recombine rarely, making changes possible in these Salix species that would be unlikely in other genome regions.
