Karyotype evolution in Fusarium. [PDF]
IMA Fungus, 2018 The germ tube burst method (GTBM) was employed to examine karyotypes of 33 Fusarium species representative of 11 species complexes that span the phylogenetic breadth of the genus.

Detecting Mechanisms of Karyotype Evolution in Heterotaxis (Orchidaceae). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The karyotype is shaped by different chromosome rearrangements during species evolution. However, determining which rearrangements are responsible for karyotype changes is a challenging task and the combination of a robust phylogeny with refined ...

Analysis of muntjac deer genome and chromatin architecture reveals rapid karyotype evolution. [PDF]
Commun Biol, 2020 Closely related muntjac deer show striking karyotype differences. Here we describe chromosome-scale genome assemblies for Chinese and Indian muntjacs, Muntiacus reevesi (2 n = 46) and Muntiacus muntjak vaginalis (2 n = 6/7), and analyze their evolution

Incomplete Sterility of Chromosomal Hybrids: Implications for Karyotype Evolution and Homoploid Hybrid Speciation. [PDF]
Front Genet, 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

Loss of centromere function drives karyotype evolution in closely related Malassezia species. [PDF]
Elife, 2020 Genomic rearrangements associated with speciation often result in variation in chromosome number among closely related species. Malassezia species show variable karyotypes ranging between six and nine chromosomes.

Divide to Conquer: Evolutionary History of Allioideae Tribes (Amaryllidaceae) Is Linked to Distinct Trends of Karyotype Evolution. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2020 Allioideae (e.g., chives, garlics, onions) comprises three mainly temperate tribes: Allieae (800 species from the northern hemisphere), Gilliesieae (80 South American species), and Tulbaghieae (26 Southern African species). We reconstructed the phylogeny

Karyotype Evolution in 10 Pinniped Species: Variability of Heterochromatin versus High Conservatism of Euchromatin as Revealed by Comparative Molecular Cytogenetics. [PDF]
Genes (Basel), 2020 Pinnipedia karyotype evolution was studied here using human, domestic dog, and stone marten whole-chromosome painting probes to obtain comparative chromosome maps among species of Odobenidae (Odobenus rosmarus), Phocidae (Phoca vitulina, Phoca largha ...

Meiotic drive shapes rates of karyotype evolution in mammals. [PDF]
Evolution, 2019 Chromosome number is perhaps the most basic characteristic of a genome, yet generalizations that can explain the evolution of this trait across large clades have remained elusive.

Oligo-barcode illuminates holocentric karyotype evolution in Rhynchospora (Cyperaceae) [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceHolocentric karyotypes are assumed to rapidly evolve through chromosome fusions and fissions due to the diffuse nature of their centromeres. Here, we took advantage of the recent availability of a chromosome-scale reference genome for Rhynchospora ...
