Nature Reviews Genetics - Polyploid gainsConsistent with these hypotheses, sequencing of the strains confirmed that the evolving tetraploid strains accumulated the most genetic diversity ...

Losick’s research has discovered that polyploid cells play a crucial role in wound healing, a role she thinks places polyploidy on the same level as stem cells, which have revolutionized the life ...

By targeting the unique features and challenges of the polyploid wheat genome and dissecting data from multiple omics levels, we have recently developed a series of genomic tools to unveil genomic ...

Soltis and colleagues continue to be fascinated by the flexibility, novelty, and dynamic nature of polyploid genomes. "An organism with a doubled genome is greater than the sum of its parts in the ...

Turnera ulmifolia constitutes a well-studied polyploid complex with allo- and autopolyploid species ranging from 2 to 8x. Flow cytometry was used to determine nuclear DNA content, and to estimate ...

Outline A large number of crop species are polyploid, which were originated by the merge of different genomic DNA. Due to polyploidy, their genome-wide study has been difficult. In this research, we ...

Five of the eight polyploid species (from 7x to 11x) displayed a diploid-like set of rDNA loci. Even the undecaploid species Lepidium muelleriferdinandi (2n = 11x = 88) showed only one pair of each ...

The effects of polyploidy seem to be basically a higher level of gene expression and increased adaptive potential, but nutritional requirements may alter in polyploid species. This means the species ...

Forest polyploid breeding group at Beijing Forestry University analyzes the genetic regulatory network of poplar leaf development ...
