Therian mammals have an extremely conserved XX/XY sex determination system. Their highly differentiated and specialised sex chromosomes are thought to prevent any modification; however, a dozen species harbour unconventional systems. In the African pygmy mouse Mus minutoides, all males are XY, and there are three types of females: the usual XX but also XX* and X*Y ones (the asterisk designates a sex reversal mutation on the X chromosome, which evolved almost 1 million years ago). The evolution of such a system is a paradox, as X*Y females are expected to face high reproductive costs (loss of YY embryos, meiotic problems…), which should prevent the maintenance of the mutation. To better understand the evolution of this curious system, we fir...
