Offspring sex preferences among patrilineal and matrilineal Mosuo in Southwest China revealed by differences in parity progression.

Royal Society open science

Mattison SM, Beheim B, Chak B, Buston P.
PMID: 27703713
R Soc Open Sci. 2016 Sep 14;3(9):160526. doi: 10.1098/rsos.160526. eCollection 2016 Sep.

Son preference predominates in China, yet there are patterned exceptions to this rule. In this paper, we test whether lineality (patrilineal versus matrilineal inheritance and descent) is associated with son versus daughter preference among the ethnic Mosuo (Na) of...

Serricchio M, Schmid AW, Steinmann ME, Sigel E, Rauch M, Julkowska D, Bonnefoy S, Fort C, Bastin P, Bütikofer P.
PMID: 26276100
Biol Open. 2015 Aug 14;4(9):1143-53. doi: 10.1242/bio.011957.

The observation that the membranes of flagella are enriched in sterols and sphingolipids has led to the hypothesis that flagella might be enriched in raft-forming lipids. However, a detailed lipidomic analysis of flagellar membranes is not available. Novel protocols...
