The importance of allopolyploidy in plant evolution has been widely recognized. The genetic
changes triggered by allopolyploidy, however, are not yet fully understood due to …

Polyploidy provides an opportunity for evolutionary innovation and species diversification,
especially under stressful conditions. In allopolyploids, the conditional dynamics of …

Gene introgression that involves the transfer of favorable allelic diversity for broadening the
genetic base of breeding materials is a powerful'toolkit'for creating novel allelic …

The occurrence of whole-genome duplication or polyploidy may promote plant adaptability
to harsh environments. Here, we clarify the evolutionary relationship of eight GhCIPK6 …

Breeding for dwarfism is an important approach to improve lodging resistance. Here, we
performed comparative analysis of the phenotype, transcriptome, and hormone contents …

Albino tea plants generally have higher theanine, which causes their tea leaves to taste
fresher, and they are an important mutant for the breeding of tea plant varieties. Earlier, we …

Polyploidization is a significant source of genomic and organism diversification during plant
evolution, and leads to substantial alterations in plant phenotypes and natural fitness. To …

Background Meiosis of newly formed allopolyploids frequently encounter perturbations
induced by the merging of divergent and hybridizable genomes. However, to date, the …

Abstract N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant modification in eukaryotic mRNA.
m6A functions in embryo development, flowering time regulation, and fruit ripening …

Allopolyploids are often faced with the challenge of maintaining well-coordination between
nuclear and cytoplasmic genes inherited from different species. The synthetic allotetraploid …
