Complexities of chromosome landing in a highly polyploid, aneuploid, interspecific genome: Towards map-based cloning of a resistance gene (bru1) in sugarcane (2n=ca 115) [PDF]
The genom e of modern sugarcane cultivars is highly polyploid (~12x), aneuploid, of interspecific origin, and contains 10 Gb of DNA. Its size and complexity represent a major challenge for the isolation of agronomically important genes.

Selection of chromosomal DNA libraries using a multiplex CRISPR system. [PDF]
The directed evolution of biomolecules to improve or change their activity is central to many engineering and synthetic biology efforts. However, selecting improved variants from gene libraries in living cells requires plasmid expression systems that ...

The duplication of an entire genome is no small affair. Whole genome duplication (WGD) is a dramatic mutation with long-lasting effects, yet it occurs repeatedly in all eukaryotic kingdoms. Plants are particularly rich in documented WGDs, with recent and

Genome assembly of six polyploid potato genomes
Genome assembly of polyploid plant genomes is a laborious task as they contain more than two copies of the genome, are often highly heterozygous with a high level of repetitive DNA. Next Generation genome sequencing data representing one Chilean and five

Evolutionary dynamics of hom(oe)ologous haplotypes (bacs) within the highly polyploid sugarcane genome [PDF]
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) has been recognized as one of the world's most efficient crops in converting solar energy into chemical energy and having the most favorable input/output ratio.

CENH3-GFP: a visual marker for gametophytic and somatic ploidy determination in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Background: The in vivo determination of the cell-specific chromosome number provides a valuable tool in several aspects of plant research. However, current techniques to determine the endosystemic ploidy level do not allow non-destructive, cell-specific

Epigenomics: dissecting hybridization and polyploidization [PDF]
Epigenetic profiling in diploid, allopolyploid, and domesticated cotton shows that despite most DNA methylation being conserved and stably inherited, alterations likely due to hybridization and domestication affect gene expression.

Hybridization, polyploidy, and evolutionary transitions between monoecy and dioecy in Bryonia (Cucurbitaceae) [PDF]
Correns’s 1903 (Berichte der Deutschen Botanischen Gesellschaft 21: 133 – 147) crosses between a monoecious and a dioecious species of Bryonia revealed the simple Mendelian inheritance of dioecy and provided the first instance of an XY sex determination ...

Loss of redundant gene expression after polyploidization in plants
Based on chromosomal location data of genes encoding 28 biochemical systems in allohexaploid wheat,Triticum aestivum L. (genomes AABBDD), it is concluded that the proportions of systems controlled by triplicate, duplicate, and single loci are 57%, 25 ...
