Extract: Although tetraploidy and tetraploid-diploid mosaicism has been well documented in studies of aborted human fetuses, no living case has been reported. This report concerns a male infant with ...

A recent study has uncovered new genetic insights into how two wild strawberries—Fragaria corymbosa and Fragaria moupinensis—have evolved to thrive in high-altitude environments. Researchers ...

Understanding inheritance patterns in polyploid crops has long posed technical and financial challenges, particularly in species like tetraploid blueberry. This study introduces a cost-effective, ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - A study out of Harvard and Purdue universities is starting to unravel the genetic mechanisms that allow some plants to duplicate their entire genomes and continue to reproduce.
