Polyploidy and the Cellular and Areal Diversity of Rat Cortical Layer 5 Pyramidal Neurons

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
In many species, polyploidy, in which an increase in nuclear DNA content is accompanied by an increase in cell size, contributes to cellular diversity.

Evolution‐Inspired Engineering of Diterpene Biosynthesis via Chloroplast Genome Modification

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Terpenes constitute the largest and most structurally diverse class of plant secondary metabolites, with critical roles in plant‐environment interactions and broad industrial applications. Although nuclear genome engineering of terpene pathways has been extensively explored, chloroplast genome engineering remains largely undeveloped, with all ...

Binucleation ramps up gene expression meeting the physiological demands of an organism

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2022
In this issue of PLOS Biology, van Rijnberk and colleagues show how polyploidy, via binucleation, enables Caenorhabditis elegans intestinal cells to ramp up gene expression supplying the oocytes with the necessary lipids for optimal organismal growth and

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Functional consequences of somatic polyploidy in development [PDF]

open access: yes
Polyploid cells contain multiple genome copies and arise in many animal tissues as a regulated part of development. However, polyploid cells can also arise due to cell division failure, DNA damage or tissue damage.

Induced polyploidy in plack pepper (Piper nigrum L.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Induced polyploidy in a hybrid cultivar of black pepper Panniyur-1 is reported. Open-pollinated seeds were used for polyploidy induction. One tetraploid of Panniyur-I with 104 chromosomes in somatic cells was recovered from plants raised from seeds ...

Extreme Polyploidy Reveals Functional Trade‐Offs in Plant Drought Responses

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyploidy shapes plant physiology and anatomy, yet the extent to which different ploidy levels influence drought responses remains unclear. Here, we investigated how ploidy affects cell‐level coordination and functional traits associated with water transport and retention.

Analyzing Wound Induced Polyploidy [PDF]

open access: yes
All organisms have developed strategies to respond to injury. Some tissues induce compensatory proliferation of surrounding cells which migrate into and invade the wound site.

Complete Chloroplast Genome of Indonesian Sugarcane (Saccharum ‘Bululawang’): Comparative, Structural, and Evolutionary Analysis of Photosystem I‐Encoding Genes

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Sugarcane is one of the most important crops, providing the majority of global sugar production and serving as a major feedstock for bioenergy. Increasing demands for sustainable sugar production under climate and productivity constraint have intensified the need for molecular‐level characterization of elite cultivars.

Genotype-specific responses to polyploidy induction in coriander using colchicine treatments

open access: yesDiscover Plants
Polyploidy plays a critical role in driving diversification and adaptation in many plant species, affecting physiological, developmental, and morphological traits. Here, we explore genotype-specific responses to colchicine-induced polyploidy in coriander
