The seemingly impossible reproduction of dogroses hinges on a centromere trick
An international research team has achieved a significant breakthrough in research into the reproduction of dogrose. The study, which has now been published in Nature, shows how differences in the size of the centromeres—the central docking sites for chromosomes—play a decisive role in the extraordinary chromosome inheritance of these plants.
