Perhaps all flowering plants have experienced one or more episodes of polyploidization at
some time in their evolutionary history. Recent evidence indicates that this genome doubling …

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 played a significant role in the origin and evolution of many plant species. The
primary phylogenetic effect of polyploidy is to stabilize selected hybrid genotypes. It also …

During the past decade there has been a tremendous resurgence of interest in polyploidy
that has in large part been stimulated by the development of increasingly powerful genetic …

Polyploidy, the condition of possessing more than two complete genomes in a cell, has
intrigued biologists for almost a century. Polyploidy is found in many plants and some animal …

Polyploidy in populations of well-differentiated plant species is now widely recognized (1, 2).
Most reports, however, are limited to a few individuals from one or several populations and …

All natural plant species are evolved from ancient polyploids. Polyloidization plays an
important role in plant genome evolution, species divergence and crop domestication. We …

Polyploidy, the condition of possessing more than 2 complete chromosome sets in the same
nucleus, is frequent in nature and has implications for a species' prospects for evolution …

Polyploidy has been widely appreciated as an important force in the evolution of plant
genomes, but now it is recognized as a common phenomenon throughout eukaryotic …

(novel expression domain or protein function)(the latter two illustrated in Fig. 1). Even more
varied yet poorly understood is the gamut of short-term evolutionary responses to polyploidy …
