In particular, there may be an accelerated rate of adaptive change for X-linked compared to autosomal coding sequences, often referred to as the Faster-X effect. Empirical studies have indicated that the strength of Faster-X evolution varies among different species, and theoretical treatments have shown that demography and mating system can substantially affect the degree of Faster-X evolution. Here we integrate genomic data on Faster-X evolution from a variety of animals with the demographic factors, mating system, and sex chromosome regulatory characteristics that may influence it. Our results suggest that differences in effective population size and mechanisms of dosage compensation may influence the perceived extent of Faster-X evolution, and help to explain several clade-specific patterns that we observe.","lang":"eng"}],"publist_id":"4967","date_updated":"2021-01-12T06:55:07Z","volume":64,"extern":1,"type":"journal_article","intvolume":" 64","status":"public","publisher":"Wiley-Blackwell","year":"2010","page":"663 - 674","day":"01","date_published":"2010-03-01T00:00:00Z","acknowledgement":"We gratefully acknowledge funding from the Royal Society (to JEM)","citation":{"apa":"Mank, J., Vicoso, B., Berlin, S., & Charlesworth, B.
