Super Coral Glow - male or female maker?

[kxr]

Sorry that was my bad. I meant to say homo ZZ. Producing all of one sex (over several trials and specimens of course) would prove that they differ from burms in their sex gametes. It should still be fertile like other burmballs, but only trials would tell.

Because (in this hypothetical situation) in one species ZZ codes for male and in the other it codes for female the larger sex chromosomes would determine which species decided the sex. I'm not exactly sure of the specifics on this though.

We still have so much to learn about this. Fortunately the burms genome sequence gives off something to work off of but obviously it isnt the same so there are areas that we are left to assume are the same with balls.

Yep! In order to make this a truly scientific study it would likely take many years to obtain enough viable hybrid clutches.

I'm still confused as to how the larger gamete would control gender but considering you don't fully understand this either I'd assume you found this result in a study regarding different species somewhere. Which would, in my naive eyes anyway, lead more credibility to this scenario.

I'm not really a fan of hybrids TBH so I don't think I would do this even if I lived somewhere where burms were legal. I just find it really fascinating and I enjoy talking about it with someone who's knowledgeable.
