Ploidy‐dependent modulation of DNA replication kinetics in Xenopus

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Using an interspecies replication system with Xenopus frog species of different ploidy levels, we investigated how DNA replication adapts to polyploidization. While replication was slower in tetraploid than in diploid nuclei, dodecaploid nuclei unexpectedly replicated faster than tetraploid nuclei. Our findings show that increasing genome size does not
