Aneuploidies are an ancestral feature of trypanosomatids, and an ancient chromosome duplication is maintained in extant species

2023-06-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Aneuploidy is widely observed in both unicellular and multicellular eukaryotes, usually associated with adaptation to stress conditions. Chromosomal duplication stability is a tradeoff between the fitness cost of having unbalanced gene copies and the potential fitness gained from increased dosage of specific advantageous genes. Trypanosomatids, a family of protozoans which include species that...
