Polyploidy is important in the evolutionary history of plants, and it has played a crucial role in
shaping the genome structures of all eukaryotes. New and rapidly improving techniques in …

Background Polyploidy or whole-genome duplication is now recognized as being present in
almost all lineages of higher plants, with multiple rounds of polyploidy occurring in most …

Investigators have long searched for a polyploidy paradigm—rules or principles that might
be common following polyploidization (whole‐genome duplication, WGD). Here we attempt …

Polyploidy, the possession of more than 2 complete genomes, is a major force in plant
evolution known to affect the genetic and genomic constitution and the phenotype of an …

Polyploidy is a very common phenomenon in the plant kingdom, where even diploid species
are often described as paleopolyploids. The polyploid condition may bring about several …

All flowering plants are now recognized as diploidized paleopolyploids (Jiao et al., 2011;
One Thousand Plant Transcriptomes Initiative, 2019), and polyploid species comprise …

Publisher Summary This chapter provides a discussion of recent advancements, in context
to plant polyploidy. Polyploidy plays a very important role in plant evolution. Major recent …

Polyploidy, or whole genome duplication, is recognized as an important feature of eukaryotic
genome evolution. Among eukaryotes, polyploidy has probably had the largest evolutionary …

Polyploidy, or the presence of two or more diploid parental genome sets within an organism,
is found to an amazing degree in higher plants. In addition, many plant species traditionally …

Since the discovery of polyploidy (the presence of more than two chromosome sets in a
nucleus) a century ago, scientists have investigated and speculated about the factors that …
