I am interested in finding out if Ginkgo biloba has been investigated with
regard to the presence of sex chromosomes.  I am aware that other plant
species such as Melandrium album (Syn. Silene latifolia) and a few others
have been shown to have sex chromosomes.  I found no references to
Ginkgo chromosomes on my library's on-line search machine which indexes
2,500 periodicals from 1991 to the present.  Any references would be
greatly appreciated.
