The frequency and importance of polyploidy in tropical rainforest tree radiations

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 2103-2114, February 2026.
Summary The presence of more than two copies of the genome in an organism, termed ‘polyploidy’, is a crucial force in plant evolution, generating genetic, phenotypic and ecological diversity. [Correction added on 22 January 2026, after first online publication: the preceding sentence has been corrected.] The Amazonian tree flora is the most species ...

Induction of gynogenesis by heterogenous sperm and cold shock treatment in Epinephelus fuscoguttatus

open access: yesReproduction and Breeding, 2021
Gynogenesis is a chromosome set manipulation technique to accelerate inbred lines used for genomics analysis and genetic breeding. Groupers are hermaphroditic fish whereby they sexually mature as females and subsequently change sex to male. Production of

Ploidy analysis among Citrus mutants using leaf meristematic tissue

open access: yesJournal of Horticultural Sciences, 2022
A promising method for preparing metaphase spread for counting the number of chromosomes from the emerging shoot tissue is described in this report. In the present study, we adopted enzymatic digestion of shoot tips to analyse the chromosome number. The

Genomic Evidence of Low Contemporary Effective Population Size and Southern Genetic Reservoirs in an Island Endemic Epiphytic Orchid of Taiwan

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Genome‐wide data from ddRADseq revealed a latitudinal gradient in genetic diversity in a Taiwanese endemic orchid. This study shows that genomic data not only can help us understand the evolutionary origins of genetic diversity in a species but also uncover its genetic reservoir for future conservation planning.

Caspase 2 in mitotic catastrophe: The terminator of aneuploid and tetraploid cells

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2017
Mitotic catastrophe is an oncosuppressive mechanism that targets cells experiencing defective mitoses via the activation of specific cell cycle checkpoints, regulated cell death pathways and/or cell senescence.

The Overlooked Threat of Global Warming on Elasmobranch Fertility

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 1, Page 41-55, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate change is increasingly recognised as a critical threat to global biodiversity, yet its impacts on reproductive processes remain poorly understood in many marine taxa. Elasmobranchs (sharks, skates and rays) represent a particularly vulnerable group due to their peculiar life histories, low fecundity, and diverse reproductive modes.

TOP1α, UPF1, and TTG2 regulate seed size in a parental dosage-dependent manner.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2020
Cues of maternal and paternal origins interact to control seed development, and the underlying molecular mechanisms are still far from clear. Here, we show that TOPOISOMERASE Iα (TOP1α), UP-FRAMESHIFT SUPPRESSOR 1 (UPF1), and TRANSPARENT TESTA GLABRA2 ...

Independent rediploidization masks shared whole genome duplication in the sturgeon-paddlefish ancestor

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Whole genome duplication (WGD) is a dramatic evolutionary event generating many new genes and which may play a role in survival through mass extinctions. Paddlefish and sturgeon are sister lineages that both show genomic evidence for ancient WGD.
