“…Such sexual dimorphisms usually arise from differential expression of genes in both sexes, i.e., sex-biased genes (including sex-specific genes exclusively in one sex) that are located on autosomal chromosomes and sex chromosomes/or sex-determining regions (Ellegren and Parsch, 2007 ;Parsch and Ellegren, 2013 ;Charlesworth, 2018b ). Recently, some studies have begun to explore the strength and impact of evolutionary forces that shape different sexually dimorphic traits through sex-biased gene expression (Mank, 2009 ;Rowe et al, 2018 ;Naqvi et al, 2019 ;Tosto et al, 2023 ). Previous studies revealed that sex-biased gene expressions were associated with the evolution of sexual dimorphisms in many animals, although the extent to which exhibits great variation among taxa, tissues, and development stages (Mank, 2017 ;Hsu et al, 2020 ;Khodursky et al, 2020 ;Lichilin et al, 2021 ;Toubiana et al, 2021 ;Djordjevic et al, 2022 ;Yue et al, 2023 ).…”
