Genomic convergence towards diploidy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae : patterns and mechanisms
Genome size, a fundamental aspect of any organism, is subject to a variety of mutational and selection pressures. We investigated genome size evolution in haploid, diploid, and tetraploid isogenic lines of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Over the course of ~1800 generations of mitotic division,...
