Polyploid organisms carry more than two copies of each chromosome, a condition rarely
tolerated in animals but which occurs relatively frequently in the plant kingdom. One of the …

Accurate identification of polymorphisms from sequence data is crucial to unlocking the
potential of high throughput sequencing for genomics. Single nucleotide polymorphisms …

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 …

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 …

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 …

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 …

Almost all extant plant species have doubled their genomes at least once in their
evolutionary histories, resulting in polyploidy which provided a rich genomic resource for …

Polyploidy plays an important role in biological diversity, trait improvement, and plant
species survival. Understanding the evolutionary phenomenon of polyploidy is a key …

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 …

Polyploids—organisms that have multiple sets of chromosomes—are common in certain
plant and animal taxa, and can be surprisingly stable. The evidence that has emerged from …
