Ploidy-variable species allow direct inference of the effects of chromosome copy number on fundamental evolutionary processes. While an abundance of theoretical work suggests polyploidy should leave distinct population genomic signatures, empirical d...

The limit to evolutionary rescue depends on ploidy in yeast exposed to nystatin (2024)
Journal Article
Ono, J., Kuzmin, A., Miller, L., & Otto, S. P. (2024). The limit to evolutionary rescue depends on ploidy in yeast exposed to nystatin. Canadian Journal of Microbiology, https://doi.org/10.1139/cjm-2023-0235

The number of copies of each chromosome, or ploidy, of an organism is a major genomic factor affecting adaptation. We set out to determine how ploidy can impact the outcome of evolution, as well as the likelihood of evolutionary rescue, using short-t...
