Sexual conflict as a constraint on asexual reproduction: an empirical review
ABSTRACT Theory predicts that facultatively asexual animals, which can leverage the advantages of both sexual and asexual reproduction, should outcompete obligately sexual and obligately asexual animals. Yet, paradoxically, obligate sexual reproduction predominates in many animal lineages, while the most flexible form of facultative asexuality (i.e ...

LocoGSE, a sequence-based genome size estimator for plants
Extensive research has focused on exploring the range of genome sizes in eukaryotes, with a particular emphasis on land plants, where significant variability has been observed. Accurate estimation of genome size is essential for various research purposes,

Japanese tumor genomes with whole‐genome duplication are diversified by allele imbalance and chromothripsis. These structural abnormalities are linked to a poor prognosis for cancer patients. ABSTRACT Whole‐genome analyses have revealed that large‐scale structural variations (SVs) such as whole‐genome duplication (WGD) occur early in the development of

Relevance of unilateral and bilateral sexual polyploidization in relation to intergenomic recombination and introgression in Lilium species hybrids [PDF]
Sexual polyploids were induced in diploid (2n = 2x = 24) interspecific F1 hybrids of Longiflorum × Asiatic (LA) and Oriental × Asiatic (OA) Lilium hybrids by backcrossing to Asiatic (AA) parents as well as by sib-mating of the F1 LA hybrids.

The Impact of Polyploid Giant Cancer Cells: The Root of Stress Resilience
Among the diverse characteristics of polyploid giant cancer cells (PGCCs) observed in various contexts, stress resilience is one of their key features, enabling survival and adaptation under harsh conditions. This review discusses the unique stress tolerance mechanisms of PGCCs and their implications for cancer progression, therapy resistance, and ...

Abstract The attraction of adopting natural and bio‐based colourants in applications has grown, but their use suffers from a lack of certification bodies, standards and reference data. In the BioColour project, we are developing an open database and tools for the characterisation, authentication and quality analysis of biocolourant sources ...

In this study, we investigated the effects of blueberry domestication on the oviposition behavior and performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii. Domestication of blueberries reduced the oviposition‐searching behavior of the parasitoid but enhanced parasitoid performance, including offspring performance. Additionally, blueberry
