Identification and Characterization of Base-Substitution Mutations in the Macronuclear Genome of the Ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila

Polyploidy can provide adaptive advantages and drive evolution. Amitotic division of the polyploid macronucleus (MAC) in ciliates acts as a nonsexual genetic mechanism to enhance adaptation to stress conditions and thus provides a unique model to investigate the evolutionary role of polyploidy. Muta...
