H-Y antigen expression in heterogametic males (XY) and females (ZW): a factor in reproductive strategy?
Yang TJ

???displayArticle.abstract???
The cells of heterogametic females with ZW sex chromosomes express H-Y or H-W antigen. A hypothesis is formulated to explain why these animals are capable of 'practicing' amphigonia retardata, i.e., delay in actual fertilization of eggs by retaining viable sperm within the oviduct for a considerable time (several months).
