Mechanisms of chromosome number evolution in yeast. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2011
The whole-genome duplication (WGD) that occurred during yeast evolution changed the basal number of chromosomes from 8 to 16. However, the number of chromosomes in post-WGD species now ranges between 10 and 16, and the number in non-WGD species ...

Molecular Phylogeny of Trifolium L. Section Trifolium with Reference to Chromosome Number and Subsections Delimitation [PDF]

open access: yesPlants, 2021
The genus Trifolium is one of the largest genera of the legume family Fabaceae with ca. 255 species. The genus is divided into eight sections; the section Trifolium is a major section of the genus, comprising 73 species mainly distributed in the ...

chromploid: An R package for chromosome number evolution across the plant tree of life [PDF]

open access: yesAppl Plant Sci, 2018
Premise of the Study Polyploidy has profound evolutionary consequences for land plants. Despite the availability of large phylogenetic and chromosomal data sets, estimating the rates of polyploidy and chromosomal evolution across the tree of life remains

Evolutionary mechanisms of runaway chromosome number change in Agrodiaetus butterflies [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2017
Despite predictions of the classic, hybrid-sterility model of chromosomal speciation, some organisms demonstrate high rate of karyotype evolution. This rate is especially impressive in Agrodiaetus butterflies that rapidly evolved the greatest chromosome ...

Recombination, chromosome number and eusociality in the Hymenoptera [PDF]

open access: yesJ Evol Biol, 2015
Extraordinarily high rates of recombination have been observed in some eusocial species. The most popular explanation is that increased recombination increases genetic variation among workers, which in turn increases colony performance, for example by ...

A deep dive into the ancestral chromosome number and genome size of flowering plants.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2020
Chromosome number and genome variation in flowering plants has stimulated a blossoming number of speculations about the ancestral chromosome number of angiosperms, but estimates so far remain equivocal.

Macroevolutionary insights into sedges (Carex: Cyperaceae): The effects of rapid chromosome number evolution on lineage diversification

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, 2021
Changes in holocentric chromosome number due to fission and fusion have direct and immediate effects on genome structure and recombination rates. These, in turn, may influence ecology and evolutionary trajectories profoundly.

Diptera and Drosophila Karyotype Databases: A Useful Dataset to Guide Evolutionary and Genomic Studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Karyotypes and chromosome data have been widely used in many subfields of biology over the last century. Unfortunately, this data is largely scattered among hundreds of articles, books, and theses, many of which are only available behind paywalls.
