The Percidae family comprises many fish species of major importance for aquaculture and fisheries. Based on three new chromosome-scale assemblies in Perca fluviatilis , Perca schrenkii and Sander vitreus along with additional percid fish reference genomes, we provide an evolutionary and comparative genomic analysis of their sex-determination systems. We explored the fate of a duplicated anti-Mullerian hormone receptor type-2 gene ( amhr2bY ), previously suggested to be the master sex determining (MSD) gene in P...
