Genome downsizing in polyploid plants

IJ Leitch, MD Bennett - Biological journal of the Linnean Society, 2004 - academic.oup.com
All else being equal, polyploids are expected to have larger C-values (amount of DNA in the
unreplicated gametic nucleus) than their diploid progenitors, increasing in direct proportion …

Genomic aspects of research involving polyploid plants

X Yang, CY Ye, ZM Cheng, TJ Tschaplinski… - Plant Cell, Tissue and …, 2011 - Springer

Endopolyploidy in seed plants is differently correlated to systematics, organ, life strategy and genome size

M Barow, A Meister - Plant, Cell & Environment, 2003 - Wiley Online Library
Endopolyploidy is a systemic feature in seed plants. A negative correlation between genome
size and endopolyploidization has been claimed previously, assuming that a minimum …

Gene duplication and evolutionary novelty in plants

LE Flagel, JF Wendel - New Phytologist, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
