Optimal assembly strategies of transcriptome related to ploidies of eukaryotic organisms
BackgroundSeveral de novo transcriptome assemblers have been developed recently to assemble the short reads generated from the next-generation sequencing platforms and different strategies were employed for assembling transcriptomes of various eukaryotes

The thermodynamics of protein aggregation reactions may underpin the enhanced metabolic efficiency associated with heterosis, some balancing selection, and the evolution of ploidy levels [PDF]
Identifying the physical basis of heterosis (or hybrid vigor) has remained elusive despite over a hundred years of research on the subject. The three main theories of heterosis are dominance theory, overdominance theory, and epistasis theory.

Impact of dietary phosphorous in diploid and triploid Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) with reference to early skeletal development in freshwater [PDF]
In order to assess the effect of dietary phosphorus (P) in reducing vertebral malformations and improving freshwater (FW) performance in triploid Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), both triploid and diploid Atlantic salmon were fed three different dietary P ...

Changes in ploidy affect vascular allometry and hydraulic function in Mangifera indica trees.
The enucleated vascular elements of the xylem and the phloem offer an excellent system to test the effect of ploidy on plant function because variation in vascular geometry has a direct influence on transport efficiency.

The hybrid number of a ploidy profile [PDF]
Polyploidization, whereby an organism inherits multiple copies of the genome of their parents, is an important evolutionary event that has been observed in plants and animals. One way to study such events is in terms of the ploidy number of the species that make up a dataset of interest.

A comparative study of the physiological responses of chronically stressed diploid and triploid Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) [PDF]
Rømt oppdrettslaks (Salmo salar) regnes for å være en av de største truslene som påføres ville populasjoner av Atlantisk laks grunnet introgressiv hybridisering. Dette kan unngås ved å indusere sterilitet i oppdrettslaksen, noe som er mulig i kommersiell

Autopolyploidy, allopolyploidy, and phylogenetic networks with horizontal arcs [PDF]
Polyploidization is an evolutionary process by which a species acquires multiple copies of its complete set of chromosomes. The reticulate nature of the signal left behind by it means that phylogenetic networks offer themselves as a framework to reconstruct the evolutionary past of species affected by it.
