1921A. F. Blakeslee in Amer. Naturalist LV. 259 The homologous chromosomes therefore form tetrasomes, to use a new term, instead of disomes as in normals or trisomes as in triploid plants. Ibid., The following terms are suggested to designate sets with numbers of chromosomes from 1 to 12: monosome, disome, trisome, [etc.]. 1924― in Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. X. 114 The ratios actually found resemble those in disomic rather than in trisomic inheritance. 1946Nature 21 Sept. 418/1 Genetical tests based on the difference between tetrasomic and disomic ratios. 1954Genetics XXXIX. 339 PWT strains, whether originating as disomics or as heterocaryotic ascospores, might be expected to have a wild phenotype. 1965Fincham & Day Fungal Genetics (ed. 2) v. 120 Although aneuploidy in the nuclei of vegetative mycelium of Neurospora has not been shown to occur.., the occurrence of n + 1 (or disomic) ascospores is well established. |
