Polyploidy is a prominent mechanism of plant speciation and adaptation, yet the mechanistic
understandings of duplicated gene regulation remain elusive. Chromatin structure dynamics …

Polyploidy in Gossypium hirsutum conferred different properties from its diploid ancestors
under the regulation of transcription factors. The NAC transcription factor is a plant-specific …

Interferon (IFN) system plays a vital role in the first line of defense against viruses. In this
study, we first identified multiple transcripts of 15 IFN system genes, including PRRs (TLR2 …

Polyploidy is a widespread phenomenon throughout eukaryotes, with important ecological
and evolutionary consequences. Although genes operate as components of complex …

Phospholipase C (PLC) are important regulatory enzymes involved in several lipid and Ca
2+-dependent signaling pathways. Previous studies have elucidated the versatile roles of …

Naturally allotetraploid cotton has been widely used as an ideal model to investigate gene
expression remodeling as a consequence of polyploidization. However, the global gene …

Allopolyploidization, that is, concomitant merging and doubling of two or more divergent
genomes in a common nucleus/cytoplasm, is known to instantly alter genomewide …

Allopolyploidization plays an important role in speciation, and some natural or synthetic
allopolyploid fishes have been extensively applied to aquaculture. Although genetic and …

Polyploidization can lead to the emergence of new species. Allotetraploid cotton arose
through hybridization and whole genome duplication of its diploid A and D genome …

Background Polyploids are common in flowering plants and they tend to have more
expanded ranges of distributions than their diploid progenitors. Possible mechanisms …
