A Double-Edged Sword: Aneuploidy is a Prevalent Strategy in Fungal Adaptation
Aneuploidy, a deviation from a balanced genome by either gain or loss of chromosomes, is generally associated with impaired fitness and developmental defects in eukaryotic organisms. While the general physiological impact of aneuploidy remains largely elusive, many phenotypes associated with aneuplo...
