Desiccation tolerance evolved recurrently across diverse plant lineages to enable survival in
water-limited conditions. Many resurrection plants are polyploid, and several groups have …

Increasing evidence supports a major role for abiotic stress response in the success of plant
polyploids, which usually thrive in harsh environments. However, understanding the …

All flowering plants are now recognized as diploidized paleopolyploids (Jiao et al., 2011;
One Thousand Plant Transcriptomes Initiative, 2019), and polyploid species comprise …

The relationships between aerial organ morpho-anatomy of woody polyploid plants with
their functional hydraulics under water stress remain largely understudied. We evaluated …

Premise Whole‐genome duplication (neopolyploidy) can instantly differentiate the
phenotype of neopolyploids from their diploid progenitors. These phenotypic shifts in organs …

Plants with specialized pollination systems may be susceptible to reproductive failure when
pollinator service is unpredictable. This can influence the selection of floral traits that …

Phenotypic integration is a concept related to the cascade of trait relationships from the
lowest organizational levels, ie genes, to the highest, ie whole-organism traits. However, the …

Premise Plant lineages differ markedly in species richness globally, regionally, and locally.
Differences in whole‐genome characteristics (WGCs) such as monoploid chromosome …

Leaf functional traits reflect species' adaptive strategies and habitat requirements.
Examining intra-specific variations and their underlying drivers can aid in comprehending …

Even within those polyploid plant species that become established initially, only a few
persist in the long term. Competitive interactions between polyploids and their ancestral …
