Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Isoetes ×atruensis hyb. nov. is shown to be a triploid (2n = 3× = 33 + 1) sterile interspecific hybrid between diploid (2n = 2× = 22 + 1) I. coromandelina and tetraploid (2n = 4× = 44 + 1) I. rajasthanensis. It has been found in two locations in Rajasthan, India.

, 2010 Genomic imprinting has been thought to play an important role in seed development in flowering plants. Seed in a flowering plant normally contains diploid embryo and triploid endosperm.

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Prenatal cfDNA screening has transformed care, yet it remains difficult to determine whether X aneuploidy signals originate from the patient or fetus, inflating screen positive and false positive rates. One potential solution is to incorporate fragment size data from paired‐end sequencing (PES).

The effect of radiation on the long term productivity of a plant based CELSS [PDF]
Mutations occur at a higher rate in space than under terrestrial conditions, primarily due to an increase in radiation levels. These mutations may effect the productivity of plants found in a controlled ecological life support system (CELSS).

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Biodiversity is threatened by human activities, with extinction debt accumulating rapidly. Many of these activities change the connectivity of populations, fragmenting existing population systems or bringing previously isolated populations or species into contact.

Effect of Ploidy in Photoreactivation.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1952 SummaryThe survival fractions of diploid and haploid strains of S. cerevisiae after ultraviolet irradiation (2537 A.U.) have been obtained, compared, and modified by photoreactivation following the initial irradiation. The haploid survival follows a sigmoid curve and is smaller than the diploid at the same dose.

Robust and highly informative microsatellite-based genetic identity kit for potato
Molecular breeding, 2009 The fingerprinting of 742 potato landraces with 51 simple sequence repeat (SSR, or microsatellite) markers resulted in improving a previously constructed potato genetic identity kit.

A synthetic eco‐evolutionary proposal for the conservation of wild relatives of the olive tree
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Societal Impact Statement Crop wild relatives (CWR) are valuable sources of genetic diversity for plant breeding. However, the identification of wild untapped genetic resources (i.e., unexploited in crops) is not always straightforward. We propose a methodology to guide the identification and conservation of these resources that integrates both genetic

OncoTarget, 2014 BACKGROUND Karyotyping and phenotyping of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in therapeutic cancer patients is of particular clinical significance in terms of both identifying chemo-resistant CTC subtypes and understanding CTC evolution.

Gene turnover in the common ancestor of all C4 grasses
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Understanding how plants evolve more efficient photosynthesis is important in a warming world where improving crop productivity and resilience is a global priority. By generating the first reference genomes for an early‐diverging group of grasses called the Aristidoideae, we were able to reconstruct the genetic makeup of the last common ancestor of all
