Homoeologous Exchanges, Segmental Allopolyploidy, and Polyploid Genome Evolution
Polyploidy is a major force in plant evolution and speciation. In newly formed allopolyploids, pairing between related chromosomes from different subgenomes (homoeologous chromosomes) during meiosis is common.

Full-Length Transcriptome Reveals Heterologous Sperm Fragments in Natural Gynogenetic Grass Carp
Grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) is one of the most economically important cyprinid species cultured in China. The diploid gynogenetic grass carp (2nGGC, 2n = 48) was generated from the hybrid of female grass carp (GC, 2n = 48) and male topmouth ...

During pregnancy, conceptus-derived extravillous trophoblast (EVT) invades the endomyometrium, anchors the placenta to the maternal uterus, and remodels the spiral arteries in order to establish maternal blood supply to the fetoplacental unit.

Citron Kinase Deficiency Leads to Chromosomal Instability and TP53-Sensitive Microcephaly [PDF]
Mutations in citron (CIT), leading to loss or inactivation of the citron kinase protein (CITK), cause primary microcephaly in humans and rodents, associated with cytokinesis failure and apoptosis in neural progenitors.

Harnessing clonal gametes in hybrid crops to engineer polyploid genomes
Heterosis boosts crop yield; however, harnessing additional progressive heterosis in polyploids is challenging for breeders. We bioengineered a ‘mitosis instead of meiosis’ (MiMe) system that generates unreduced, clonal gametes in three hybrid tomato ...

The novel hybrid fish BTB, derived from crossing blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala, BSB) and topmouth culter (Culter alburnus, TC), exhibits markedly hypoxia tolerance in aquaculture. In this study, hypoxic treatment experiments confirmed that,

Polyploid spermatozoa in Pityogenes chalcographus and Ips typographus (Coleoptera: Scolytidae)
Abnormal spermatogenesis in Pityogenes chalcographus (L.) and Ips typographus (L.) results in oversized spermatozoa in all the populations investigated. They can be identified by light microscopy and classified as 2n up to 16n polyploid.

Golden 2-Like (GLK) transcription factors play a crucial role in chloroplast development and chlorophyll synthesis in many plant taxa. To date, no systematic analysis of GLK transcription factors in tree species has been conducted.

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

Understanding polyploid establishment: temporary persistence or stable coexistence?
Polyploidy, resulting from whole‐genome duplication (WGD), is ubiquitous in nature and reportedly associated with extreme environments and biological invasions. However, WGD usually comes with great costs, raising questions about the establishment chance
