If anything there has been an overproliferation of commercial ventures competing for a limited business base and, as such, we've seen Iridium and Globalstar (anyone remember Microsoft's 'Teledesic' proposal for 400 or so satellites in LEO?) go bust along with the dot-coms a decade ago.

Disturbing stem cell regulation can arrest the growth of a plant's shoot tip, or may result in gross tissue overproliferation and failure to reproduce.

Drosophila haemocyte-like cells to identify JAK/STAT target genes, combined with an in vivo model for JAK-induced blood cell overproliferation, to identify the main effectors required for haematopoietic tumour development.

Parental genomic imbalance particularly affects proliferation of the endosperm, with an increased ratio of paternally to maternally contributed genomes ( 'paternal excess') associated with overproliferation, while maternal excess inhibits endosperm growth.

The genes abl and bcr, located on different chromosomes, fuse and express a hybrid BCR-ABL enzyme that is always active; this hyperactive BCR-ABL drives the overproliferation of white blood cells that is the hallmark of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML).
