Studying the genetics of adaptation to new environments in ecologically and industrially
important tree species is currently a major research line in the fields of plant science and …

Polyploidy, which arises from genome duplication, has occurred throughout the history of
eukaryotes, though it is especially common in plants. The resulting increased size …

Abstract Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.) is a globally important
ornamental plant with great economic, cultural, and symbolic value. However, research on …

Polyploidy and life-strategy transitions between annuality and perenniality often occur in
flowering plants. However, the evolutionary propensities of polyploids and the genetic bases …

Hybridization brings together chromosome sets from two or more distinct progenitor species.
Genome duplication associated with hybridization, or allopolyploidy, allows these …

Polyploidization is important to the evolution of plants. Subgenome dominance is a distinct
phenomenon associated with most allopolyploids. A gene on the dominant subgenome …

Teleost fishes are ancient tetraploids descended from an ancestral whole-genome
duplication that may have contributed to the impressive diversification of this clade. Whole …

Speciation via hybridization and polyploidization is a major evolutionary force in plant
evolution but is still poorly understood for neopolyploid groups. Challenges are attributed to …

Allopolyploids result from hybridization between different evolutionary lineages coupled with
genome doubling. Homoeologous chromosomes (chromosomes with common shared …

Allopolyploidy is an important process in plant speciation, yet newly formed allopolyploid
species typically suffer from extreme genetic bottlenecks. One escape from this impasse …
