Synaptonemal complex formation in Avena polyploids [PDF]
Avena maroccana (2n = 4x = 28) and A. sativa (2n = 6x = 42) are allopolyploids. Reconstructions from electron micrographs of synaptonemal complexes in serial sections of pollen mother cells showed that associations at zygotene and subsequent stages of meiosis are confined to homologous chromosomes only, with the result that only bivalents are generated.

Untangling Complex Histories of Genome Mergings in High Polyploids [PDF]
Polyploidy, the duplication of entire genomes, plays a major role in plant evolution. In allopolyploids, genome duplication is associated with hybridization between two or more divergent genomes. Successive hybridization and polyploidization events can build up species complexes of allopolyploids with complicated network-like histories, and the ...

Molecular evidence for multiple polyploidization and lineage recombination in the Chrysanthemum indicum polyploid complex (Asteraceae) [PDF]
The Chrysanthemum indicum polyploid complex comprises morphologically differentiated diploids, tetraploids and hybrids between C. indicum and C. lavandulifolium. The relationships between species and cytotypes within this complex remain poorly understood.

Induction of Synthetic Polyploids and Assessment of Genomic Stability in Lippia alba
Polyploidy is widely recognized as a major evolutionary force in plants and has been reported in the genus Lippia (Verbenaceae). Lippia alba, the most studied species, has been documented as a polyploid complex involving at least four ploidal levels.

The effect of polyploidy and hybridization on the evolution of floral colour in Nicotiana (Solanaceae). [PDF]
Speciation in angiosperms can be accompanied by changes in floral colour that may influence pollinator preference and reproductive isolation. This study investigates whether changes in floral colour can accompany polyploid and homoploid hybridization ...

DataSheet_1_Ecological niches in the polyploid complex Linum suffruticosum s.l..docx
IntroductionThe high frequency of polyploidy in the evolutionary history of many plant groups occurring in the Mediterranean region is likely a consequence of its dynamic paleogeographic and climatic history.

Mining sequence variations in representative polyploid sugarcane germplasm accessions
Background Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is one of the most important economic crops because of its high sugar production and biofuel potential. Due to the high polyploid level and complex genome of sugarcane, it has been a huge challenge to investigate ...

Development of an Agent-Based Model to Investigate Durability of Factor IX Activity in Hemophilia B Patients Treated With Etranacogene Dezaparvovec. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Many currently approved gene therapies use adeno‐associated virus (AAV) to deliver DNA sequences encoding protein(s)‐of‐interest into cells. The AAV viral genome forms stable, circular DNA structures called episomes after entering the nuclei. Therapeutic proteins are then generated in vivo from transcription and translation of these episomes ...

Genetic relationships and polyploid origins in the Lippia alba complex [PDF]
PremisePlant genomes vary in size and complexity due in part to polyploidization. Latitudinal analyses of polyploidy are biased toward floras of temperate regions, with much less research done in the tropics. Lippia alba has been described as a tropical polyploid complex with diploid, triploid, tetraploid, and hexaploid accessions.
