Abstract
We introduce the gonosomal algebra. Gonosomal algebra extends the evolution algebra of the bisexual population (EABP) defined by Ladra and Rozikov. We show that gonosomal algebras can represent algebraically a wide variety of sex determination systems observed in bisexual populations. We illustrate this by about twenty genetic examples, most of these examples cannot be represented by an EABP. We give seven algebraic constructions of gonosomal algebras, each is illustrated by genetic examples. We show that unlike the EABP gonosomal algebras are not dibaric. We approach the existence of dibaric function and idempotent in gonosomal algebras.
