The gene doublesex of Anastrepha obliqua is composed of four instead of the usual six exons. It is transcribed in both sexes and its primary transcript undergoes sex-specific splicing, producing female Dsx(F) and male Dsx(M) proteins, which have in common the amino-terminal region but which differ at the carboxyl-terminal region.
