Reticulate allopolyploidy and subsequent dysploidy drive evolution and diversification in the cotton family [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsPolyploidy and subsequent post-polyploid diploidization (PPD) are key drivers of plant genome evolution, yet their contributions to evolutionary success remain debated.

Selective identification of polyploid hepatocellular carcinomas with poor prognosis by artificial intelligence-based pathological image recognition [PDF]
Communications MedicineBackground Polyploidy is frequently observed in cancer cells and is closely associated with chromosomal instability, which can lead to cancer progression.

Plants, 2022 The application of polyploidy in sustainable agriculture has already brought much appreciation among researchers. Polyploidy may occur naturally or can be induced in the laboratory using chemical or gaseous agents and results in complete chromosome ...

Current Biology, 2015 Polyploidy is defined as an increase in genome DNA content. Throughout the plant and animal kingdoms specific cell types become polyploid as part of their differentiation programs. When this occurs in subsets of tissues within an organism it is termed somatic polyploidy, because it is distinct from the increase in ploidy that is inherited through the ...

Polyploidization in Orchids: From Cellular Changes to Breeding Applications
Plants, 2022 Polyploidy occurs naturally in plants through cell division errors or can artificially be induced by antimitotic agents and has ecological effects on species adaptation, evolution, and development.

A role for polyploidy in the tumorigenicity of Pim-1-expressing human prostate and mammary epithelial cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 BackgroundPolyploidy is a prominent feature of many human cancers, and it has long been hypothesized that polyploidy may contribute to tumorigenesis by promoting genomic instability.

The Influence of Geographical Factors on Polyploidy in Angiosperms with Cartographic Evidence from the Northwestern Himalayas: A Review [PDF]
Nature Environment and Pollution Technology, 2023 The review paper comprised the impact of geographical and environmental factors on polyploidy and vice versa. The review covers different effects of geographical factors, like spatial isolation, altitude, and local climate on polyploidy, and the behavior

Evolutionary and Genomic Diversity of True Polyploidy in Tetrapods
Animals, 2023 True polyploid organisms have more than two chromosome sets in their somatic and germline cells. Polyploidy is a major evolutionary force and has played a significant role in the early genomic evolution of plants, different invertebrate taxa, chordates ...

POInTbrowse: orthology prediction and synteny exploration for paleopolyploid genomes
BMC Bioinformatics, 2023 We describe POInTbrowse, a web portal that gives access to the orthology inferences made for polyploid genomes with POInT, the Polyploidy Orthology Inference Tool.

Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Whole genome duplication, leading to polyploidy and endopolyploidy, occurs in all domains and kingdoms and is especially prevalent in vascular plants. Both polyploidy and endopolyploidy increase cell size, but it is unclear whether both processes have ...
