Homozygous mutants for either cyc or sqt show only partial loss of axial mesoderm and ventral neuroectoderm because of the overlapping expression and similar activities of both genes, whereas cyc/sqt d ...

The most plausible explanation for the observed increase in the stability of YRp7M with increasing ploidy is that its copy number increases proportionately, thus decreasing the probability of segregating plasmid-free cells in the absence of a functional centromere. Therefore the copy numbers of both ...
