Getting a full dose? Reconsidering sex chromosome dosage compensation in the silkworm, Bombyx mori.

abstract：:In the experimental evolution of microbes such as Escherichia coli, many replicate populations are evolved from a common ancestor. Freezing a population sample supplemented with the cryoprotectant glycerol permits later analysis or restarting of an evolution experiment. Typically, each evolving population, and thus ea...
