With the global human population growing rapidly, agricultural production must increase to
meet crop demand. Improving crops through breeding is a sustainable approach to increase …

Genome duplication is widespread in wild and crop plants. However, little is known about
genome-wide selection in polyploids due to the complexity of duplicated genomes. In …

Hybridization and polyploidization represent an important speciation mechanism in the
diploid-polyploid complex of the Chenopodium album aggregate. In the present study we …

Premise of The Study Autopolyploidy, or whole‐genome duplication within a species, leads
to closely related cytotypes in one geographic location. One hypothesized mechanism by …

The floating-leaved aquatic plant genus Nymphoides includes diploid and polyploid species
that are distributed worldwide. Prior studies found widespread incongruence between …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNA molecules involved in the post-
transcriptional regulation of gene expression in plants. Arundo donax L. is a perennial C3 …

Premise of the Study Interpreting relationships within groups containing polyploids, which
are frequent in angiosperms, can be greatly assisted by genomic techniques. In this study …

Brassica napus (rapeseed) is a young allopolyploid species, formed from the union between
progenitor species B. rapa (2 n= AA) and B. oleracea (2 n= CC) less than 7500 years ago …

This review illustrates how NGS-derived information can be used to tailor genomic tools for
different needs and applications to non-model crop improvement, and how such …

The genomic revolution of the last decades has greatly improved our understanding of the
genetic make-up of living organisms. During the last 25 years, remarkable advances in DNA …
