Tetraploidy‐linked sensitization to CENP‐E inhibition in human cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2023
Tetraploidy is a hallmark of cancer cells, and tetraploidy‐selective cell growth suppression is a potential strategy for targeted cancer therapy. However, how tetraploid cells differ from normal diploids in their sensitivity to anti‐proliferative ...

Reconstructing the evolutionary history of herbaceous crops through trait‐based ecology

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Reconstructing the evolution of crop plants is fundamental to understanding their origins, ecological adaptations, and impacts on ecosystem processes. However, our understanding of crop evolution stems largely from archaeology and genetics, with less focus on a trait‐based ecological approach.

Causes of delayed angiosperm diversification: The photosynthetic revolution, increased opportunity costs of anti‐herbivore defenses, selection for qualitative toxins, and acceleration of plant–herbivore coevolution

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Why did it take so long for angiosperms to diversify after they arose? Here I consider the indirect but potentially crucial impact of the “photosynthetic revolution” on plant–herbivore coevolution. Increased vein density in fossil leaves implies a doubling in photosynthesis 125–100 million years ago.

Arabidopsis ULTRAVIOLET-B-INSENSITIVE4 maintains cell division activity by temporal inhibition of the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) is a multisubunit ubiquitin ligase that regulates progression through the cell cycle by marking key cell division proteins for destruction.

Case Series of Nizon‐Isidor Syndrome by Heterozygous Variants in MED12L With Further Evidence of Mitotic Instability in One Case With Diploid–Triploid Mosaicism

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nizon‐Isidor syndrome is a rare disorder caused by heterozygous variants in MED12L, with only eight documented cases in the literature. Here, we present three additional cases of this syndrome. Proband 1 was a 7‐year‐old female who presented with developmental delay, right‐leg hemihypertrophy, laryngeal cleft, esotropia, abnormal skin ...

Genome Size and Karyotype Studies in Five Species of Lantana (Verbenaceae)

open access: yesHortScience, 2021
Lantana species are an important component of the U.S. environmental horticulture industry. The most commonly produced and used species are L. camara and, on a smaller scale, L. montevidensis. Both were introduced to the United States from Central and/or

Stem-Like Adaptive Aneuploidy and Cancer Quasispecies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We analyze and reinterpret experimental evidence from the literature to argue for an ability of tumor cells to self-regulate their aneuploidy rate. We conjecture that this ability is mediated by a diversification factor that exploits molecular mechanisms

Topological and variational modularity: A case study using the pectoral girdle across the Chrosomus eos‐neogaeus hybridization complex

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Modularity and integration are key developmental properties and have remained central in evo‐devo research because of how they relate to evolvability. While modularity and integration have commonly been assessed with landmark‐based geometric morphometrics (GMM), other methods such as anatomical network analysis (AnNA) are increasingly being ...

A public mid-density genotyping platform for cultivated cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon Aiton). [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Genome
Abstract Cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon Aiton), a native North American fruit crop, has gained global popularity due to its unique flavor and health benefits. As the market expands for new cranberry products, the requirements to produce varieties that meet new standards have increased.

Ploidy and the Causes of Genomic Evolution [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Heredity, 2009
Genomes vary dramatically in size and in content. This variation is driven in part by numerous polyploidization events that have happened over the course of eukaryotic evolution. Experimental evolution studies, primarily using the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, provide insights into the immediate fitness effects of ploidy mutations, the ability of ...
