Subgenome dominance in an interspecific hybrid, synthetic allopolyploid, and a 140-year-old naturally established neo-allopolyploid monkeyflower
Recent studies have shown that one of the parental subgenomes in ancient polyploids is
generally more dominant, having retained more genes and being more highly expressed, a …
