Heteroploidy

/ˌhetərəˈplɔɪdi/ noun

Definition

The condition of having an abnormal number of chromosomes that isn't a simple multiple of the basic chromosome set.

Etymology

From Greek 'hetero-' (different) + 'ploid' (from 'ploos' meaning fold). This noun form emerged alongside the adjective in early 20th-century genetics terminology.

Kelly Says

Heteroploidy is actually quite common in plants—many crop species are naturally aneuploid, which sometimes gives them desirable traits like disease resistance.
