Evolution of gene duplication in plants
Ancient duplication events and a high rate of retention of extant pairs of duplicate genes
have contributed to an abundance of duplicate genes in plant genomes. These duplicates …

Evolution of plant genome architecture
We have witnessed an explosion in our understanding of the evolution and structure of plant
genomes in recent years. Here, we highlight three important emergent realizations:(1) that …

The transcriptional landscape of polyploid wheat
INTRODUCTION Polyploidy, arising from whole-genome duplication or interspecific
hybridization, is ubiquitous across the plant and fungal kingdoms. The presence of highly …

Polyploidy: pitfalls and paths to a paradigm
Investigators have long searched for a polyploidy paradigm—rules or principles that might
be common following polyploidization (whole‐genome duplication, WGD). Here we attempt …

The long and short of doubling down: polyploidy, epigenetics, and the temporal dynamics of genome fractionation
We consider the rapidly advancing discipline of plant evolutionary genomics, with a focus on
the evolution of polyploid genomes. In many lineages, polyploidy is followed by 'biased …

Genome and transcriptome analysis of the Mesoamerican common bean and the role of gene duplications in establishing tissue and temporal specialization of genes
Background Legumes are the third largest family of angiosperms and the second most
important crop class. Legume genomes have been shaped by extensive large-scale gene …

Genome-wide characterization and expression analyses of superoxide dismutase (SOD) genes in Gossypium hirsutum
W Wang, X Zhang, F Deng, R Yuan, F Shen - BMC genomics, 2017 - Springer
Abstract Background Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are a key antioxidant enzyme family,
which have been implicated in protecting plants against the toxic effects of reactive oxygen …
