Besides amitosis, cold-pretreatment also induced some abnormal mitotic behavior leading to the formation of micronuclei. |
|
If a deleterious mutation occurs, the chromosome carrying that mutation can be lost following unequal assortment during amitosis of the macronucleus. |
|
During logarithmic growth, when there are micronuclei mitosis and macronuclei amitosis, and starvation condition, CYC2 gene doesn't express at all. |
|
The major consequence of amitosis is the unequal partition of the genetic material between the two daughter cells, which causes a random segregation of alleles and an asymmetric division of the chromosomes. |
