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, 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 …

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 …

The last decade highlighted polyploidy as a rampant evolutionary process that triggers
drastic genome reorganization, but much remains to be understood about their causes and …

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 …

Plant genomes vary in size and complexity, fueled in part by processes of whole-genome
duplication (WGD; polyploidy) and subsequent genome evolution. Despite repeated …

Enormous strides have been made in the study of polyploidy over the last 20 yr. Here, we
highlight some of these discoveries and note where our understanding of polyploid …

Although it has long been recog-nized that polyploidy (now often referred to as genome
doubling) has played a major role in angiosperm evolution (1), analyses of genomic data …

Polyploidy is defined as an increase in genome DNA content. Throughout the plant and
animal kingdoms specific cell types become polyploid as part of their differentiation …

Polyploidy is a prominent process in plants and has been significant in the evolutionary
history of vertebrates and other eukaryotes. In plants, interdisciplinary approaches …
