Consequences of Chromosome Loss: Why Do Cells Need Each Chromosome Twice?
Aneuploidy is a cellular state with an unbalanced chromosome number that deviates from the usual euploid status. During evolution, elaborate cellular mechanisms have evolved to maintain the correct chromosome content over generations.

Numerous investigations (both clinical and basic) in today’s molecular biology laboratory require accurate quantification of DNA by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). To name a few important examples, quantitative PCR has been used to quantify viral copy number, to perform gene expression studies, and to diagnose genetic diseases.

Dosage compensation in birds [PDF]
The Z and W sex chromosomes of birds have evolved independently from the mammalian X and Y chromosomes [1]. Unlike mammals, female birds are heterogametic (ZW), while males are homogametic (ZZ).

Karyotype, ploidy, and gene dosage [PDF]
The normal karyotype of Caenorhabditis elegans, with its five pairs of autosomes and single pair of X chromosomes, is described. General features of chromosomes and global differences between different chromosomal regions are discussed. Abnormal karyotypes, including duplications, deficiencies, inversions, translocations and chromosome fusions are ...

Gene duplicability of core genes is highly consistent across all angiosperms [PDF]
Gene duplication is an important mechanism for adding to genomic novelty. Hence, which genes undergo duplication and are preserved following duplication is an important question. It has been observed that gene duplicability, or the ability of genes to be

Women and men exhibit differences in innate and adaptive immunity, and women are more susceptible to numerous autoimmune disorders. Two or more X chromosomes increases the risk for some autoimmune diseases, and increased expression of some X‐linked ...

Impaired tumor growth and angiogenesis in mice heterozygous for Vegfr2 (Flk1) [PDF]
VEGF signaling through its tyrosine kinase receptor, VEGFR2 (FLK1), is critical for tumor angiogenesis. Previous studies have identified a critical gene dosage effect of VegfA in embryonic development and vessel homeostasis, neovascularization, and tumor

Selective gene dosage by CRISPR‐Cas9 genome editing in hexaploid Camelina sativa
In many plant species, gene dosage is an important cause of phenotype variation. Engineering gene dosage, particularly in polyploid genomes, would provide an efficient tool for plant breeding.
