Polyploids exhibit different phenotypes compared to those of diploids in plants, and the
important role of polyploids in tree breeding has been widely recognized. The …

Tetraploid plants often have altered rates of vegetative growth relative to their diploid
progenitors. However, the molecular basis for altered growth rates remains a mystery. This …

Plant polyploids tend to have large leaves, but their formation mechanism has not yet been
well explained. Therefore, daily transcriptomic differences between triploids and diploids …

Polyploids generally show vegetative growth superiority, higher biological yield, and
enhanced resistance compared with diploids, which is already an important strategy in plant …

As a model plant, poplar 84 K (Populus alba× P. glandulosa) plays a key role in fundamental
research in forest molecular biology. Poplar 84 K is a suitable plant for in vitro polyploidy …

Breeding for dwarfism is an important approach to improve lodging resistance. Here, we
performed comparative analysis of the phenotype, transcriptome, and hormone contents …

Polyploid breeding is important in Populus genetic improvement programs because
polyploid trees generally display increased height growth compared to their diploid parents …

After polyploidization, plants usually undergo some morphological and physiological
changes, including the lignin content of polyploids usually becoming lower than that of …

Main conclusion Cell-size enlargement plays a pivotal role in increasing the leaf size of
triploid poplar, and polyploidization could change leaf shape. ABP1 was highly expressed in …

Polyploidy and haploid are widely employed in the studies of genetics and evolution, and
great progress has been made in these fields, inspiring the enthusiasm of scientists to …
