First evidence of a genetic basis for thermal adaptation in a schistosome host snail
Abstract Freshwater snails play a key role in the transmission of schistosomiasis, a tropical parasitic disease affecting over 150 million people. Adaptation of these snails to local climatic conditions is a critical factor in determining how climate change and other environmental factors influence disease transmission dynamics, yet this potential ...

Comparison of photosynthesis and antioxidant performance of several Citrus and Fortunella species under natural chilling stress : S08P24 [PDF]
Citrus plants originate from southeastern Asia, in a large area with various climates characterized by a broad range of temperatures. Temperature is assumed to be a key factor in Citrus species adaptation and diversification.

Polyploidization in liver tissue. [PDF]
International audiencePolyploidy (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

Polyploidy Studies in Viticulture
Seedless table grapes are the most preferred grapes by the consumers. Stenospermocarpy and parthenocarpy are the natural causes of seedlessness in breeding studies. The most significant characteristic of seedless grapes are their small sized and seedless

Mitotic chromosome counts in Chilean pteridophytes confirm the diploidy described for Equisetum L. (2n = 216) and Blechnum L. (2n = 66), as well as the tetraploidy of Asplenium L. (2n = 144). Megalastrum spectabile (Kaulf.) A.R.Sm.

This study explores the complementary roles of chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) and karyotyping in detecting chromosomal mosaicism in prenatal diagnosis. By analyzing 2007 amniocentesis cases, it demonstrates how combining both methods improves detection accuracy, particularly in cases where one method alone may miss subtle abnormalities.

Autotetraploid Citrus limonia rootstocks are more tolerant to water deficit than parentalal diploids : [S1-2] [PDF]
Water shortage of soils is one of the main abiotic constraints affecting growth and yield in citrus. When grown in the field, tetraploid seedlings and varieties grafted on tetraploid rootstocks have been shown to be slow growing plants.

Clustered Intracellular Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium blocks host cell cytokinesis [PDF]
Several bacterial pathogens and viruses interfere with the cell cycle of their host cells to enhance virulence. This is especially apparent in bacteria that colonize the gut epithelium, where inhibition of the cell cycle of infected cells enhances the ...

Whole genome duplications, or tetraplodies, are an important source of increased gene content. Following whole genome duplication, duplicate copies of many genes are lost from the genome.
