Polyploidy (whole‐genome duplication, WGD) is an integral feature of eukaryotic evolution
with two main forms typically recognized, autopolyploidy and allopolyploidy. In plants, a …

Human‐associated microorganisms are ideal models to study the impact of environmental
changes on species evolution and adaptation because of their small genome, short …

Background Hybridization is observed in many eukaryotic lineages and can lead to the
formation of polyploid species. The study of hybridization and polyploidization faces …

We present an overview of Gossypium genome evolution and the implications of this
understanding for targeted breeding objectives. The cotton genus (Gossypium) contains …

During the last decade, S-genotyping has been extensively investigated in fruit tree crops
such as those belonging to the Prunus genus, including plums. In plums, S-allele typing has …

The history of many plant lineages is complicated by reticulate evolution with cases of
hybridization often followed by genome duplication (allopolyploidy). In such a context, the …

The morphological and ecological intermediacy of hybrid taxa has long interested and
challenged fern biologists, resulting in numerous systematic contributions focused on …

Allopolyploidization is accompanied by changes in gene expression that are thought to
contribute to phenotypic diversification. Here we describe global changes in the single …

Gene expression dynamics is a key component of polyploid evolution, varying in nature,
intensity, and temporal scales, most particularly in allopolyploids, where two or more sub …

Cultivated peanut and synthetics are allotetraploids (2 n= 4 x= 40) with two homeologous
sets of chromosomes. Meiosis in allotetraploid peanut is generally thought to show diploid …
