Extrachromosomal inheritance in Schizosaccharomyces pombe
Molecular and General Genetics MGG, 1976 In contrast to the wild-type, mutant [ANTr8] is able spontaneously to throw off stable respiratory deficient mutants. The frequency of these mutants is considerably enhanced by treatment with ethidium bromide (EB) or the azo-dye Janus green (JG). An unstable cell state with a petite-like phenotype is found in both mutant [ANTr8] and wild-type after EB ...

The Role of Extrachromosomal Inheritance in Plant Breeding
, 1972 Publisher Summary This chapter discusses several mechanisms involved in extrachromosomal inheritance. It is demonstrated that chloroplasts and mitochondria contain their own deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), with a unique informational content. Consequently, it seems reasonable to assume that many cases of extrachromosomal inheritance involve the genetic ...

Inheritance of extrachromosomal rDNA in Physarum polycephalum. [PDF]
Molecular and Cellular Biology, 1983 In the acellular slime mold Physarum polycephalum, the several hundred genes coding for rRNA are located on linear extrachromosomal DNA molecules of a discrete size, 60 kilobases. Each molecule contains two genes that are arranged in a palindromic fashion and separated by a central spacer region. We investigated how rDNA is inherited after meiosis. Two

EVIDENCE OF EXTRACHROMOSOMAL INHERITANCE INCHENOPODIUM RUBRUM
Canadian Journal of Genetics and Cytology, 1968 A curled-leaf mutation (Cu) was induced in Chenopodium rubrum by diethyl sulphate treatment and reversed in high frequency (21.5%) by X-rays. Nonchromosomal inheritance is demonstrated for the Cu mutation. Evidence for nonchromosomal inheritance is based on mutation frequency; mutagenic specificity, non-Mendelian segregation; and an absence of ...

Molecular and General Genetics MGG, 1977 Spontaneously arising erythromycin-resistant mutants were isolated in the "petite-negative" yeast Kluyveromyces lactis. Two independently arising mutants were studied, in one erythromycin-resistance was conferred by a single dominant nuclear gene, and in the other the resistance was extrachromosomally inherited.

BioEssays, 2016 Mature spermatozoa are permeable to foreign DNA and RNA molecules. Here I propose a model, whereby extrachromosomal genetic information, mostly encoded in the form of RNA in somatic cells, can cross the Weismann barrier and reach epididymal spermatozoa.

Theoretical Population Biology, 1985 A model of the P-M system of hybrid dysgenesis is presented which incorporates single-site transposition of P factors in M cytotype, determination of offspring cytotype by both maternal cytotype and maternal or offspring nuclear genotype, and strong fertility selection in dysgenic individuals.
