Genome diversity and evolution of the duckweed section Alatae comprising diploids, polyploids, and interspecific hybrids

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 122, Issue 2, April 2025.
SUMMARY The section Alatae of genus Lemna of the monocotyledonous aquatic duckweed family (Lemnaceae) consists of rather diverse accessions with unknown phylogeny and unclear taxonomic assignment. In contrast to other duckweeds, some Alatae accessions, in addition to mainly vegetative propagation, produce readily flowers and viable seeds.

Cytotaxonomic studies in Brazilian Rhynchospora (Cyperaceae), a genus exhibiting holocentric chromosomes

open access: yes, 1998
The genus Rhynchospora (Cyperaceae) is a widely distributed Brazilian group, with approximately 150 species. We have studied mitosis and (or) meiosis of 16 species of four sections (Dichromena, Longirostres, Polycephalae, and Pluriflorae).

Chromatin-induced Spindle Assembly Plays an Important Role in Metaphase Congression of Silkworm Holocentric Chromosomes

open access: yes, 2013
The kinetochore plays important roles in cell cycle progression. Interactions between 4 chromosomes and spindle microtubules allow chromosomes to congress to the middle of the 5 cell and to segregate the sister chromatids into daughter cells in mitosis ...

Chromosomal divergence and evolutionary inferences in Rhodniini based on the chromosomal location of ribosomal genes

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2013
In this study, we used fluorescence in situ hybridisation to determine the chromosomal location of 45S rDNA clusters in 10 species of the tribe Rhodniini (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae).

Incomplete Sterility of Chromosomal Hybrids: Implications for Karyotype Evolution and Homoploid Hybrid Speciation

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Heterozygotes for major chromosomal rearrangements such as fusions and fissions are expected to display a high level of sterility due to problems during meiosis. However, some species, especially plants and animals with holocentric chromosomes, are known

Dysdera parthenogenetica sp. nov. (Araneae, Dysderidae): A Unique Case of Parthenogenesis in Spiders

open access: yesJournal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
We studied the parthenogenetic lineages of the spider Dysdera hungarica (Araneae: Dysderidae). Based on our data, we consider them to constitute a separate taxon, Dysdera parthenogenetica sp. nov. Morphologically, the new species differs mainly by slightly reduced female copulatory organs.

Data from: Chromosomes tell half of the story: the correlation between karyotype rearrangements and genetic diversity in sedges, a group with holocentric chromosomes

open access: yes, 2010
Chromosome rearrangements may affect the rate and patterns of gene flow within species, through reduced fitness of structural heterozygotes or by reducing recombination rates in rearranged areas of the genome.

Analysis of Holhymenia histrio genome provides insight into the satDNA evolution in an insect with holocentric chromosomes

open access: yes, 2020
Satellite DNAs (satDNA) are fast-evolving repetitive sequences organized in large tandem arrays, with characteristic enrichment in heterochromatin. Knowledge about evolutionary dynamics of this genome fraction is mostly restricted to its characterization

Unique territorial and compartmental organization of chromosomes in the holocentric silkmoth

open access: yes
Abstract The hallmarks of chromosome organization in multicellular eukaryotes are chromosome territories (CT), chromatin compartments, and insulated domains, including topologically associated domains (TADs). Yet, most of these elements of chromosome organization are derived from analyses of a limited set of model organisms, while large ...
