• The evolutionary consequences of polyploidy. (2007, background): “In addition, somatic variation in ploidy (“endopolyploidy”) is a normal part of development in many animals as well as plants (Gregory, 2005).”
• DIVERSITY IN THE GENUS SKELETONEMA (BACILLARIOPHYCEAE): III. PHYLOGENETIC POSITION AND MORPHOLOGICAL VARIABILITY OF SKELETONEMA COSTATUM AND SKELETONEMA GREVILLEI, WITH THE DESCRIPTION OF SKELETONEMA ARDENS SP. NOV. 1 (2007, background): “These peculiar patterns might constitute scars from mobile genetic elements, such as class II transposons (Kidwell 2005) and other temporal insertions, such as that present in the SSU of the Neapolitan strains of S. tropicum.”
• Pladias Database of the Czech flora and vegetation (2021, background): “Ploidy level determines the minimum copy number of most genes, influences minimal cell size and other morphological and ecological properties of the taxon (Stebbins 1950, Levin 2002, Tate et al. 2005).”
• Ecological stoichiometry: An elementary approach using basic principles (2013, background): “…of cellular P. Interestingly, swapping resources (P) from DNA to RNA not only maximizes growth via protein synthesis but also reduces cell volume and increases cell division rate because genome size generally scales positively with cell volume and negatively with growth rate (Gregory 2005).”
• Genome duplication in amphibians and fish: an extended synthesis (2011, methodology): “For fishes, genome size and karyotype data were obtained from the animal genome size database (Gregory 2005a) (http://www.genomesize.com/), while taxonomic, ecological and biogeographic information was mined from Fishbase (Froese & Pauly, 2008) (http://www.fishbase.org).”
• Genome size in Bulgarian Centaurea s.l. (Asteraceae) (2006, background): “Holoploid and monoploid genome size are taxonomically significant traits of fundamental biological importance (Bennett and Leitch 1995, 2005a; Bennett et al. 2000; Gregory 2003, 2005).”
• Cytotaxonomy: The end of childhood (2012, background): “Even within a single species, polyploid individuals or populations may be independently formed (Tate et al. 2005).”
• Rapid Evolution of Enormous, Multichromosomal Genomes in Flowering Plant Mitochondria with Exceptionally High Mutation Rates (2012, background): “Mitochondrial genomes display striking diversity in size and complexity [22,23], reflecting patterns of variation in genome architecture observed more broadly across the tree of life [9,24].”
• The more the better? The role of polyploidy in facilitating plant invasions. (2012, background): “Universal nucleotypic effects among most organisms include a positive correlation between genome size and the cell volume and a negative correlation with the cell division rate (Gregory, 2005).”
• The largest eukaryotic genome of them all (2010, background): “…with available data for over 10 000 species showing that they currently vary c. 57 000-fold (this is less than often quoted because the commonly cited extreme values for amoebae, e.g. 700 000 Mbp for Amoeba dubia, are excluded due to considerable uncertainty about their accuracy; Gregory, 2005b).”
• SCALE AND HIERARCHY IN MACROEVOLUTION (2007, background): “…selfish genetic elements so disrupts the life cycle of their insect hosts that they increase extinction risk for infected populations so that the organismic traits of the host species suffer higher extinction rates relative to those of uninfected species (see Vinogradov 2003, 2004; Gregory 2005).”
• Teleost fish with specific genome duplication as unique models of vertebrate evolution (2010, background): “2007); exceptionally, some lineages of amphibians and reptiles have experienced an additional WGD (Gregory 2005).”
• Polyploidy in Plants (2005, background): “…in plants and has been a major factor in the evolution of other lineages of eukaryotes, including yeast (Kellis & al., 2004) and many groups of vertebrates and invertebrates (reviewed in Levin, 2002; Wendel & Doyle, 2005; Adams & Wendel, 2005; Gregory & Mable, 2005; Tate & al., 2005).”
