Post-Meiotic Intra-Testicular Sperm Senescence in a Wild Vertebrate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
There is growing interest in sperm senescence, both in its underlying mechanisms and evolutionary consequences, because it can impact the evolution of numerous life history traits. Previous studies have documented various types of sperm senescence, but

Selection Does Operate Primarily on Genes: In Defense of the Gene as the Unit of Selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Natural selection is an important force that shapes the evolution of all living things by determining which individuals contribute the most descendents to future generations.

Meiotic abnormalities in primary regenerants from callus culture of immature embryos of 'Norstar' winter wheat

open access: yes, 1990
Tissue culture can induce changes in chromosome structure and number in common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The type and frequency of such changes were evaluated in primary regenerants extracted from calli of four immature embryos of 'Norstar' winter ...

Pollen viability and meiotic analysis of Solanum commersonii commersonii Dun., Solanum commersonii malmeanum Bitt. and Solanum tuberosum L.

open access: yesCrop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2007
Meiotic abnormalities in potato hamper sexual recombination, due to their influence on pollen production and viability rate. In this study we evaluated pollen viability and meiosis of three clones of Solanum commersonii commersonii Dun.

A case of penta X syndrome caused by nondisjunction in maternal meiosis 1 and 2

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2017
Key Clinical Message The prenatal abnormalities in patients with penta X syndrome appear late in pregnancy and are nonspecific. In contrast, the postnatal phenotype is well described although new findings are still revealed.

Unleashing meiotic crossovers in hybrid plants

open access: yes, 2017
Significance In eukaryotes, meiotic recombination shuffles genetic information at each generation, making each offspring unique. In addition to its key role in heredity and evolution, this gene reshuffling is central in plant and animal ...

Meiotic observation on ‘Bartzella’, an intersectional hybrid of Paeonia

open access: yesXibei zhiwu xuebao
[Objective] Most intersectional hybrids in Paeonia are triploids and generally sterile, producing a small number of hybrid offspring. Observing the meiotic chromosome behaviors of ‘Bartzella’, an intersectional hybrid with high ornamental value and ...

Assessment on cytotoxic and mutagenic potency of Gamma rays and EMS in Vigna mungo L. Hepper

open access: yesBiotecnología Vegetal, 2019
To determine the mutagen agent potency and deduce an optimum dose, cytological analysis for induced chromosomal aberrations is considered as an accurate index in mutation breeding.

Chromosome segregation and meiotic defects in carriers of chromosomal abnormalities

open access: yes, 2009
Male carriers of chromosomal abnormalities (CA) are more frequent in the infertile population. These men have higher levels of sperm aneuploidy due to the aberrant segregation of the chromosomes involved in the abnormality. The presence of a CA may also influence the segregation of other chromosomes, in a process known as in interchromosomal effect ...

Cytoembryological evaluation, meiotic behavior and pollen viability of Paspalum notatum tetraploidized plants

open access: yesCrop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2016
This study evaluated the mode of reproduction, the meiotic behavior and the pollen viability of three tetraploid plants (2n=4x=40) originated from somatic chromosome duplication of Paspalum notatum plants. The plant WKS 3 changed the mode of reproduction
