Abstract excerpt
The early development of aneuploidy from an accidental chromosome missegregation shows contrasting effects. On the one hand, it is associated with significant cellular stress and decreased fitness. On the other hand, it often carries a beneficial effect and provides a quick (but typically transient) solution to external stress. These apparently controversial trends emerge in several experimental contexts,...
