Whole-genome duplication (WGD) is characteristic of almost all fundamental lineages of
land plants. Unfortunately, the timings of WGD events are loosely constrained and …

The advances accelerated by next‐generation sequencing and long‐read sequencing
technologies continue to provide an impetus for plant phylogenetic study. In the past …

Green plants (Viridiplantae) include around 450,000–500,000 species, of great diversity and
have important roles in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Here, as part of the One …

Chloranthales remain the last major mesangiosperm lineage without a nuclear genome
assembly. We therefore assemble a high-quality chromosome-level genome of Chloranthus …

Fabaceae are the third largest angiosperm family, with 765 genera and∼ 19 500 species.
They are important both economically and ecologically, and global Fabaceae crops are …

Ancient whole-genome duplications (WGDs or polyploidy) are prevalent in plants, and some
WGDs occurred during the timing of severe global environmental changes. It has been …

Most land plants are now known to be ancient polyploids that have rediploidized.
Diploidization involves many changes in genome organization that ultimately restore …

Asterids are one of the most successful angiosperm lineages, exhibiting extensive
morphological diversity and including a number of important crops. Despite their biological …

Wild animals and plants have developed a variety of adaptive traits driven by adaptive
evolution, an important strategy for species survival and persistence. Uncovering the …

Background Homoeologs are defined as homologous genes resulting from allopolyploidy.
Bread wheat, Triticum aestivum, is an allohexaploid species with many homoeologs …
