Polyploidy is a state where a cell contains more copies of the genetic material than the usual "diploid" cell, which contains two copies. Polyploidy often occurs in human diseases and cancers, and its ...

The figure shows the possible paths that result in the sudden transition from diploidy to polyploidy and the gradual transition from polyploidy to diploidy. The hybridization events that result in ...

Scientists have discovered that blocking a key cellular enzyme thought to protect against fatty liver disease may instead ...

Vol. 303, No. 8, Special Issue: Polyploidy in Deep and Shallow Evolutionary Times (October 2017), pp. 1093-1108 (16 pages) Polyploidy is one of the most important evolutionary processes in plants. In ...

REISMAN, Zuelzer and Mitani 1 described polyploidy and endoreduplication of chromosomes in a patient being treated for acute leukemia. They ascribed these abnormalities to a primary chromosomal ...

Researchers have revealed the relationship between autophagy and polyploidy, the latter a phenomenon in which cells contain multiple copies of genetic material. In this regard, they have discovered a ...

Assistant Professor of Biology Vicki Losick admits she harbors a desire to change the world a little bit. “I want to make ‘polyploidy’ a household word,” Losick said in her Higgins Hall office, next ...

Scientists have examined the effects of genome doubling on cell biology and the generation of novelty in plants. In the 2019 Coulter Review, "Polyploidy, the Nucleotype, and Novelty: The Impact of ...

A research team has elucidated the role of polyploidy in the evolution and breeding of vegetable crops, leveraging advanced sequencing technologies to dissect the genetic and epigenetic nuances of ...
