Cross-species summary: Previously known as Sex reversal: XY female, SRY-negative. The present name (ovotesticular DSD) corresponds to the recommendations on nomenclature for disorders of sexual development (DSD) proposed by Lee et al. (Pediatrics 2006;118;e488; DOI: 10.1542/peds.2006-0738).
Species-specific description: Song et al. (2017) "mutated Sp1-binding sites in the 5′ flanking region of the rabbit SRY gene using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. As expected, the [resultant] SRY-Sp1 knockout rabbits had female external and internal genitalia and exhibited normal female copulatory behaviors, but they were infertile, and the adults displayed reduced follicles." Thus, these animals are genetically-modified organisms (GMO)
