Remote sensing of ploidy level in quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.)
Ploidy level in plants may influence ecological functioning, demography and response to climate change. However, measuring ploidy level typically requires intensive cell or molecular methods.

Cytological and Molecular Characterization for Ploidy Determination in Yams (Dioscorea spp.)
Yam (Dioscorea spp.) is a monocotyledonous herbaceous vine plant grown in the tropics and subtropics. It is a multi-species plant with varied intra- and interspecific ploidy levels.

Flow cytometry (FCM) has been used for plant DNA content estimation since the 1980s; however, presently, the number of laboratories equipped with flow cytometers has significantly increased and these are used extensively not only for research but also in

Lattice-based simulation of the effects of nutrient concentration and magnetic field exposure on yeast colony growth and morphology [PDF]
Yeasts exist in communities that expand over space and time to form complex structures and patterns. We developed a computational lattice-based framework to perform spatial-temporal simulations of budding yeast colonies exposed to different nutrient and magnetic field conditions. The budding patterns of haploid and diploid yeast cells were incorporated

As part of normal development most eukaryotic organisms, ranging from insects and mammals to plants, display variations in nuclear ploidy levels resulting from somatic endopolyploidy.

Cyanobacterial N2‐fixing microorganisms (diazotrophs) play a critical role in nitrogen and carbon cycling in the oceans; hence, accurate measurements of diazotroph abundance are imperative for understanding ocean biogeochemistry. Marine diazotroph abundances are often assessed using qPCR of the nifH gene, a sensitive, taxa‐specific, and time/cost ...

The microgeographical patterns of morphological and molecular variation of a mixed ploidy population in the species complex Actinidia chinensis. [PDF]
Polyploidy and hybridization are thought to have significant impacts on both the evolution and diversification of the genus Actinidia, but the structure and patterns of morphology and molecular diversity relating to ploidy variation of wild Actinidia ...

Ploidy Variation in Fungi: Polyploidy, Aneuploidy, and Genome Evolution
The ability of an organism to replicate and segregate its genome with high fidelity is vital to its survival and for the production of future generations.

Ploidy and the Causes of Genomic Evolution [PDF]
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 ...

Molecular and functional profiling unravels targetable vulnerabilities in colorectal cancer
We used whole exome and RNA‐sequencing to profile divergent genomic and transcriptomic landscapes of microsatellite stable (MSS) and microsatellite instable (MSI) colorectal cancer. Alterations were classified using a computational score for integrative cancer variant annotation and prioritization.
