  bibo_abstract:
  - Sex-chromosome systems are highly variable across animals, but how they transition
    from one to another is not well understood. Diptera have undergone multiple sex-chromosome
    turnovers and expansions while maintaining their general chromosomal content,
    which makes them an ideal clade to study such transitions. We analysed more than
    100 dipteran whole-genome assemblies and identified 4 new lineages that underwent
    sex-chromosome turnover (in addition to the 5 previously reported). We find the
    majority of turnovers happened in the group Schizophora, which tend to have fewer
    genes on the F element (the chromosome homologous to the ancestral insect X chromosome)
    than lower dipterans, a factor previously hypothesized to facilitate turnover.
    Most derived X chromosomes have higher GC content than autosomes, consistent with
    a high prevalence of male-achiasmy in Diptera. In addition, an excess of gene
    movement out of the X is detected for most of these new X chromosomes, and many
    of these moved genes have high testis expression in Drosophila, suggesting that
    out-of-X gene movement contributes to the long-term demasculinization of X chromosomes.@eng
