Evolutionary rates and gene dispensability associate with replication timing in the Archaeon Sulfolobus islandicus [PDF]
In bacterial chromosomes, the position of a gene relative to the single origin of replication generally reflects its replication timing, how often it is expressed, and consequently, its rate of evolution.

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.

This study assessed the combinations of genetic manipulation; signal peptide modification, gene dosage increment and co-expression of folding component, to increase Saccharomycopsis fibuligera R64 α-amylase (Sfamy) secretion in Pichia pastoris.

Down syndrome-recent progress and future prospects [PDF]
Down syndrome (DS) is caused by trisomy of chromosome 21 (Hsa21) and is associated with a number of deleterious phenotypes, including learning disability, heart defects, early-onset Alzheimer's disease and childhood leukaemia.

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.

Partial dosage compensation in Strepsiptera, a sister group of beetles. [PDF]
Sex chromosomes have evolved independently in many different taxa, and so have mechanisms to compensate for expression differences on sex chromosomes in males and females. Different clades have evolved vastly different ways to achieve dosage compensation,

Significance Phenotypic trait variation can be linked to genomic sequence variation. These differences range from a single nucleotide to larger insertion and deletion (indel) of chromosomal segments.

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.

Does gene dosage really matter? [PDF]
Mechanisms to compensate for dosage differences of genes on sex chromosomes are widespread in animals and have been thought to be critical for viability. However, in birds, compensation is inefficient, implying that for many genes dosage compensation is not critical, and for some genes, dosage differences have even been selected for.
