Valdivia K, Mourot B, Jouanno E, Volff J, Galiana-Arnoux D, Guyomard R, et al.
Sex Dev . 2013 Mar; 7(4):196-206. PMID: 23485832
Sex determination is known to be male heterogametic in the rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss; however, scattered observations that deviate from this rather strict genetic control have been reported. Here, we...

Schultheis C, Bohne A, Schartl M, Volff J, Galiana-Arnoux D
Sex Dev . 2009 Aug; 3(2-3):68-77. PMID: 19684452
Poeciliids, a family of live-bearing freshwater fish, including among others platyfish, swordtails and guppies, fully illustrate the diversity of genetic sex determination mechanisms observed in teleosts. Besides unisexuality, a variety...

Kirchner J, Ivanova V, Samson A, Noskov V, Volff J, Resnick M, et al.
Mar Biotechnol (NY) . 2004 Feb; 3(Supplement 1):S168-76. PMID: 14961313
We modified the TAR methodology of YAC clone construction for application to fish genomic DNA isolated from Xiphophorus maculatus. YAC libraries were developed using the XIR1 repeat sequence as the...

Froschauer A, Korting C, Bernhardt W, Nanda I, Schmid M, Schartl M, et al.
Mar Biotechnol (NY) . 2004 Feb; 3(Supplement 1):S72-80. PMID: 14961302
Melanoma formation in certain interspecific hybrids of the genus Xiphophorus (Teleostei: Poeciliidae) is associated with the overexpression of the Xmrk receptor tyrosine kinase oncogene. The Xmrk oncogene arose by duplication...

Volff J, Schartl M
Genetica . 2002 Feb; 111(1-3):101-10. PMID: 11841158
Poeciliids are one of the best-studied groups of fishes with respect to sex determination. They present an amazing variety of mechanisms, which span from simple XX-XY or ZZ-ZW systems to...

Volff J, Hornung U, Schartl M
Mol Genet Genomics . 2001 Jul; 265(4):711-20. PMID: 11459192
Poseidon and Neptune are two ancient lineages of retroposons related to the Penelope element from Drosophila virilis. They have been identified in various teleost fish species, including the medakafish (Oryzias...

Volff J, Korting C, Froschauer A, Sweeney K, Schartl M
J Mol Evol . 2001 May; 52(4):351-60. PMID: 11343131
All autonomous non-long terminal repeat (non-LTR) retrotransposons reported to date in vertebrates encode an apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease-like enzyme necessary for target sequence cleavage and subsequent target-primed reverse transcription. We describe here...

Volff J, Korting C, Altschmied J, Duschl J, Sweeney K, WICHERT K, et al.
Mol Biol Evol . 2001 Feb; 18(2):101-11. PMID: 11158369
Jule is the second complete long-terminal-repeat (LTR) Ty3/Gypsy retrotransposon identified to date in vertebrates. Jule, first isolated from the poeciliid fish Xiphophorus maculatus, is 4.8 kb in length, is flanked...

Volff J, Korting C, Schartl M
Mol Biol Evol . 2000 Nov; 17(11):1673-84. PMID: 11070055
Rex1, together with the related BABAR: elements, represents a new family of non-long-terminal-repeat (non-LTR) retrotransposons from fish, which might be related to the CR1 clade of LINE elements. Rex1/BABAR: retrotransposons...
