Stingray Sam.

More importantly, can this lead to better births control options in human males and how does it change the genome over generations?

Interesting to think what this would do to their mitochondria, as that DNA is all maternal in nature. Does it just take the last female ancestors mitochondria? Does this cause potential stress on that organelle to the point that it can cause inherited diseases? Still really cool (and potentially frightening) technology!

Probably the same or similar way that we can predetermine the sex of a baby.

Edit: Although, it would be interesting to study the effects of that karotype, because it is impossible to achieve under natural circumstances, so we don't really know much about it.

And such was the beginning of research in Sauroman's laboratory that gave rise to the Urukai.
