Effects of ploidy and recombination on evolution of robustness in a model of the segment polarity network. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2009 Many genetic networks are astonishingly robust to quantitative variation, allowing these networks to continue functioning in the face of mutation and environmental perturbation. However, the evolution of such robustness remains poorly understood for real

Ancient evolutionary trade-offs between yeast ploidy states. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2013 The number of chromosome sets contained within the nucleus of eukaryotic organisms is a fundamental yet evolutionarily poorly characterized genetic variable of life.

Target Capture Sequencing Provides Insights Into Hybridogenetic Water Frogs. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe genomics of European frogs of the genus Pelophylax are intriguing due to their propensity to hybridise, the prevalence of polyploidy, and the unusual hemiclonal hybridogenetic complexes formed in many populations. This study examines the use of target capture sequencing using the Frog Cap bait set to investigate these complex systems.

Diploidy within a Haploid Genus of Entomopathogenic Fungi [PDF]
Genome Biology and Evolution, 2021 Abstract Fungi in the genus Metarhizium are soil-borne plant–root endophytes and rhizosphere colonizers, but also potent insect pathogens with highly variable host ranges. These ascomycete fungi are predominantly asexually reproducing and ancestrally haploid, but two independent origins of persistent diploidy within the Coleoptera ...

Cryptic fitness advantage: diploids invade haploid populations despite lacking any apparent advantage as measured by standard fitness assays. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Ploidy varies tremendously within and between species, yet the factors that influence when or why ploidy variants are adaptive remains poorly understood.

X-Linked Intellectual Developmental Disorder-93 Caused by BRWD3 Mutation in Females: A Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]
Mol Genet Genomic MedA case of MRX93 in a 1‐year‐and‐3‐month‐old girl was reported, in whom a heterozygous deletion from exon 21 to exon 30 in the BRWD3 gene occurred. We conducted a literature review to explore the clinical phenotypes and genetic characteristics of MRX93 in females. ABSTRACT Objective To report the clinical manifestations and genetic diagnosis of a female

Onset of quiescence following p53 mediated down-regulation of H2AX in normal cells.
PLoS ONE, 2011 Normal cells, both in vivo and in vitro, become quiescent after serial cell proliferation. During this process, cells can develop immortality with genomic instability, although the mechanisms by which this is regulated are unclear.
