Background The great diversity in plant genome size and chromosome number is partly due
to polyploidization (ie genome doubling events). The differences in genome size and …

The Gossypium genus consists of about 50 diploid species distributed in 8 genome groups
(A–G and K) and 7 known tetraploid species derived from the fusion of the A and D …

Cotton belonging to the genus Gossypium, Malvaceae family, is a natural source for the
textile industry. It is an economically important crop that is grown worldwide but can also be …

The peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is the leading oil and food crop among the legume family.

Subgenome asymmetry (SA) has routinely been attributed to different responses between
the subgenomes of a polyploid to various stimuli during evolution. Here, we compared …

Abstract Background Finger millet (Eleusine coracana 2n= 4x= 36) is a hardy, nutraceutical,
