Key genes, including the sry gene on the Y chromosome, and various autosomal interactions significantly influence outcomes. Additionally, maternal stress and nutrition may skew these ratios, highlighting the intricate connection between genetics and environmental conditions. Future research aims to refine breeding strategies and enhance production efficiency by exploring genetic markers and environmental impacts on sex differentiation.
