Overcoming Self-Incompatibility in Diploid Potato Using CRISPR-Cas9

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Potato breeding can be redirected to a diploid inbred/F1 hybrid variety breeding strategy if self-compatibility can be introduced into diploid germplasm.

Efficient Characterization of Tetraploid Watermelon

open access: yesPlants, 2019
Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. &Nakai) is an economic crop, which is widely cultivated around the world. The ploidy study of watermelon has an important role in field breeding and production, therefore, timely and convenient ploidy ...

HaploMerger2: rebuilding both haploid sub-assemblies from high-heterozygosity diploid genome assembly

open access: yesBioinform., 2017
Summary De novo assembly is a difficult issue for heterozygous diploid genomes. The advent of high-throughput short-read and long-read sequencing technologies provides both new challenges and potential solutions to the issue.

Self-renewing diploid Axin2+ cells fuel homeostatic renewal of the liver

open access: yesNature, 2015
The source of new hepatocytes in the uninjured liver has remained an open question. By lineage tracing using the Wnt-responsive gene Axin2 in mice, we identify a population of proliferating and self-renewing cells adjacent to the central vein in the ...

The genome-wide rate and spectrum of spontaneous mutations differ between haploid and diploid yeast

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018
Significance Organisms vary in the number of genome copies per cell: ploidy. By altering how DNA is replicated and repaired, ploidy may determine the number and types of mutations that arise, affecting how evolution proceeds. We sequenced the genomes of >

The Transcriptional Landscape of Polyploid Wheats and Their Diploid Ancestors during Embryogenesis and Grain Development[OPEN]

open access: yesThe Plant Cell, 2019
Transcriptomic analysis of polyploid wheats and ancestral diploid grasses sheds light on the programming of embryo and grain development, gene activities, and their evolutionary implications.

Unzipping haplotypes in diploid and polyploid genomes

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2019
Diploid genomes consist of two homologous copies of chromosomes with one from each parent while polyploid genomes contain more than two homologous sets of chromosomes.

Starch and tuber traits of diploid potato lines B26 and B100 and their hybrids

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology
Diploid potato breeding enables faster genetic improvement via selection against deleterious alleles in inbred lines, unlike breeding by intercrossing tetraploid varieties.

When double is not twice as much

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2011
Gene and genome duplications provide a playground for various selective pressures and contribute significantly to genome complexity. It is assumed that the genomes of all major eukaryotic lineages possess duplicated regions that result from gene and ...
