As a major driving force of evolution, polyploidy (genome duplication) is ubiquitous across different evolutionary stages of the flowering plant tree of life. However, the interactions between the ...

The Drosophila melanogaster abdominal epithelium provides a good model for understanding how postmitotic diploid cells contribute to repair upon tissue damage. Losick et al. show that, after puncture ...

Angiosperms, also known as flowering plants, represent the most diverse group of seed plants, and their origin and evolution ...

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 ...
