Polyploidization has played a prominent role in the evolutionary history of plants. Two recent
and sequential allopolyploidization events have resulted in the formation of wheat species …

Background Interaction between parental genomes is accompanied by global changes in
gene expression which, eventually, contributes to growth vigor and the broader phenotypic …

Allopolyploidization is an important evolutionary event in plants, but its genome-wide effects
are not fully understood. Common wheat, Triticum aestivum (AABBDD), evolved through …

Hexaploid wheat consists of three subgenomes, namely, A, B, and D. These well-
characterized ancestral genomes also exist at the diploid and tetraploid levels, thereby …

Background Bread wheat is a recent allohexaploid (genomic constitution AABBDD) that
emerged through a hybridization between tetraploid Triticum turgidum (AABB) and diploid …

Allopolyploidy often triggers phenotypic novelty and gene expression remolding in the
resulting polyploids. In this study, we employed multiple phenotypic and genetic approaches …

Whole-genome duplication is widespread in plant evolutionary history and is followed by
nonrandom gene loss to return to a diploid state. Across multiple angiosperm species, the …

Background Polyploidy has played a prominent role in the evolution of plants and many
other eukaryotic lineages. However, how polyploid genomes adapt to the abrupt presence of …

Background Alteration in gene expression resulting from allopolyploidization is a prominent
feature in plants, but its spectrum and extent are not fully known. Common wheat (Triticum …

Synthetic hexaploid wheat (SHW) lines are created as pre-breeding germplasm to diversify
the D subgenome of hexaploid wheat and capitalize upon the untapped genetic diversity of …
