The date palm tree is a commercially important member of the genusPhoenixwhose 14 species are all dioecious with separate male and female individuals. Previous studies identified a multi-megabase region of the date palm genome linked to sex and showed that dioecy likely developed in Phoenix prior to speciation. To identify genes critical to sex determination we sequenced the genomes of 28Phoenixtrees representing all 14 species. Male-specific sequences were identified and extended using phased
