This paper reviewed the chromosomal engineering in the aspects of double diploid, hetero-additive line, hetero-replacement line, exchange line, monosome one incomplete chromosome systems.
Abstract : It is difficulty to select and breed apomictic germplasm among diploid rices at present, but it has become a hotspot to select and breed apomictic germplasm among polyploid rices.
The reason that finding might matter to us, is that recent studies in mice and zebra fish have shown that hearts with more diploid cells—like a zebra fish's—are able to regenerate and heal themselves.
