Ploidy-Dependent Response to Anticancer Drugs of Human Embryonic Stem Cells. [PDF]
Using isogenic hESCs, differing only in their ploidy level, we show the effect of ploidy on the resistance to anticancer drugs. We demonstrate that polyploidy, by itself, confers sensitivity to chemotherapies, leading to higher apoptosis and delayed proliferation, while the loss of p53 reverses the phenotype, demonstrating higher resistance.

Genotype calling of triploid offspring from diploid parents
Background Polyploidy is widespread in animals and especially in plants. Different kinds of ploidies exist, for example, hexaploidy in wheat, octaploidy in strawberries, and diploidy, triploidy, tetraploidy, and pseudo-tetraploidy (partly tetraploid) in ...

Early Growth of Diploid, Triploid and Triploid Hybrid Aspen
Abstract A five-year-old planting is described which includes two triploid quaking aspen ( Populus tremuloides Michx.) clones, two triploid hybrid families ( P. tremuloides × P. tremula ) and two

The Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, is a successive irregular hermaphrodite mollusk which has an annual breeding cycle. Oysters are naturally diploid organisms, but triploid oysters have been developed for use in shellfish aquaculture, with the aim of

Evidence for viable and stable triploid Trypanosoma congolense parasites
Background Recent whole genome sequencing (WGS) analysis identified a viable triploid strain of Trypanosoma congolense. This triploid strain BANANCL2 was a clone of the field isolate BANAN/83/CRTRA/64 that was collected from cattle in Burkina Faso in ...
