Unique structure and positive selection promote the rapid divergence of Drosophila Y chromosomes
Y chromosomes across diverse species convergently evolve a gene-poor, heterochromatic organization enriched for duplicated genes, LTR retrotransposons, and satellite DNA.Sexual antagonism and a loss of recombination play major roles in the degeneration of young Y chromosomes.However, the processes shaping the evolution of mature, already degenerate
