Whole genome duplications in plants: an overview fromArabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2015
Polyploidy is a common event in plants that involves the acquisition of more than two complete sets of chromosomes. Allopolyploidy originates from interspecies hybrids while autopolyploidy originates from intraspecies whole genome duplication (WGD) events.

Mechanisms of gene expression evolution in polyploids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
textPolyploidy, or whole genome duplication (WGD), is a fundamental evolutionary mechanism for diverse organisms including many plants and some animals. Duplicate genes from WGD are a major source of expression and functional diversity.

Ligand‐dependent transcriptional heterogeneity in cell cycle gene expression delays G1/S entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
EGF and HRG induce distinct G1/S progression programs in ErbB2‐amplified BT474 breast cancer cells. Despite activating the potent ErbB2–ErbB3 heterodimer, HRG does not accelerate cell‐cycle entry. Instead, EGF promotes earlier restriction‐point passage via ERK–FOS signaling, whereas HRG activates the AKT–MYC axis, driving transcriptional heterogeneity ...

Phylogenomic profiles of whole-genome duplications in Poaceae and landscape of differential duplicate retention and losses among major Poaceae lineages

open access: yesNature Communications
Poaceae members shared a whole-genome duplication called rho. However, little is known about the evolutionary pattern of the rho-derived duplicates among Poaceae lineages and implications in adaptive evolution.

A recent duplication revisited: phylogenetic analysis reveals an ancestral duplication highly-conserved throughout the Oryza genus and beyond

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2009
Background The role of gene duplication in the structural and functional evolution of genomes has been well documented. Analysis of complete rice (Oryza sativa) genome sequences suggested an ancient whole genome duplication, common to all the grasses ...

Significance of whole-genome duplications on the emergence of evolutionary novelties

open access: yesBriefings in Functional Genomics, 2018
Acquisition of evolutionary novelties is a fundamental process for adapting to the external environment and invading new niches and results in the diversification of life, which we can see in the world today. How such novel phenotypic traits are acquired in the course of evolution and are built up in developing embryos has been a central question in ...

Differential retention and divergent resolution of duplicate genes following whole-genome duplication [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Research, 2014
TheParamecium aureliacomplex is a group of 15 species that share at least three past whole-genome duplications (WGDs). The macronuclear genome sequences ofP. biaureliaandP. sexaureliaare presented and compared to the published sequence ofP. tetraurelia.

The Capsaspora genome reveals a complex unicellular prehistory of animals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
To reconstruct the evolutionary origin of multicellular animals from their unicellular ancestors, the genome sequences of diverse unicellular relatives are essential. However, only the genome of the choanoflagellate Monosiga brevicollis has been reported

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

The genome evolution and domestication of tropical fruit mango

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2020
Background Mango is one of the world’s most important tropical fruits. It belongs to the family Anacardiaceae, which includes several other economically important species, notably cashew, sumac and pistachio from other genera. Many species in this family
