Abstract
Phenotypic sex of hatching painted turtles (Chrysemys picta), a species known to exhibit temperature-dependent sex determination, is influenced by the hydric environment to which developing embryos are subjected. Hatching sex ratios vary significantly over the range of 26.5 to 28.5 degrees C due to effects of the hydric environment.Entities:
