In Vivo and In Vitro Chromosome Doubling of ‘I3’ Hemp
Cannabis sativa L. is a diploid (2x) herbaceous plant that provides a wide variety of products such as essential oils, fiber, and medicine. Hemp was defined in the 2018 Farm Bill as a Cannabis plant with a delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of ...

The Effect of cdk1 Gene Knockout on Heat Shock-Induced Polyploidization in Loach (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus) [PDF]
(1) Background: Polyploid fish are highly important in increasing fish production, improving fish quality, and breeding new varieties. The loach (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus), as a naturally polyploid fish, serves as an ideal biological model for ...

Double-checking chromosome segregation
Enduring chromosome segregation errors represent potential threats to genomic stability due to eventual chromosome copy number alterations (aneuploidy) and formation of micronuclei—key intermediates of a rapid mutational process known as chromothripsis that is found in cancer and congenital disorders.

Research Progress of Chromosome Doubling and 2n Gametes of Ornamental Plants
Polyploid plants, an important source for the selection of ornamental plants for their advantages of faster growth, higher yields, and stronger adaptability to an adverse environment, play an essential role in the development of economic plants for ...

Cytological study on haploid male fertility in maize
Doubled haploid (DH) breeding technology, which relies on haploid genome doubling, is widely used in commercial maize breeding. Spontaneous haploid genome doubling (SHGD), a more simplified and straightforward method, is gaining popularity among maize ...

Double minute chromosomes are not centromeric regions of the host chromosomes [PDF]
The SEWA ascites tumor of the mouse contains, in addition to the ordinary chromosomes, a varying number of minute chromatin bodies, called double minutes (dms). Among 394 cells, 43 were without dms, the others had from 1 to 300 dms. The appearance of the dms suggested that they were acentric, which was also supported by the finding that even the ...

Background The great diversity in plant genome size and chromosome number is partly due to polyploidization (i.e. genome doubling events). The differences in genome size and chromosome number among diploid plant species can be a window into the ...

Chromosome doubling in Paspalum notatum var. saure (cultivar Pensacola) [PDF]
Paspalum notatum is one of the most important native grassland species of southern Brazil, and the main forage source for livestock. The native ecotypes are tetraploid and have apomictic reproduction, which prevents the registration and protection of ...

Background Doubled haploid production is a key technology in triticale research and breeding. A critical component of this method depends on chromosome doubling, which is traditionally achieved by in vivo treatment of seedlings with colchicine.
