Genome duplication represents a dramatic, yet relatively common, genomic change, having occurred in the evolutionary history of angiosperms, vertebrates, and yeast, among many other groups. The result of such duplications ('polyploidy,' the existence of multiple sets of chromosomes within the genome) has long been recognized and was implicated as a ...

Polyploidization in Liver Tissue
Polyploidy (alias whole genome amplification) refers to organisms containing more than two basic sets of chromosomes. Polyploidy was first observed in plants more than a century ago, and it is known that such processes occur in many eukaryotes under a variety of circumstances.

Postglacial colonization and parallel evolution of metal tolerance in the polyploid Cerastium alpinum [PDF]
The Fennoscandian flora is characterized by a high frequency of polyploids, probably because they were more successful than diploid plants in colonizing after the last Ice Age.

Biodiversity is threatened by human activities, with extinction debt accumulating rapidly. Many of these activities change the connectivity of populations, fragmenting existing population systems or bringing previously isolated populations or species into contact.

Distant hybridization in fish serves to integrate the genetic material from two distinct, distantly related species. In this study, we successfully produced a new hybrid fish (BG) through the intergeneric hybridization of blunt snout bream (Megalobrama ...

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.

Polyploidy plays a crucial role in plant evolution and speciation. The development of male and female gametes is essential to the reproductive capacity of polyploids, but their gene expression pattern has not been fully explored in newly established ...

Polyploid races, genetic structure and morphological features of earthworm Aporrectodea rosea (Savigny, 1826) (Oligohaeta: Lumbricidae) in Ukraine [PDF]
Four chromosomal races (2n=36, 3n=54, 6n=108, 8n=144) and 96 clones have been revealed among 224 specimens of the earthworm A. rosea over the territory of Ukraine by means of karyological analysis and biochemical genetic marking.

Past, present and future of local crop evolution
Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).
