It has long been recognized that hybridization and polyploidy are prominent processes in
plant evolution. Although classically recognized as significant in speciation and adaptation …

The prevalence of polyploidy in wild and crop species has stimulated debate over its
evolutionary advantages and disadvantages. Previous studies have focused on changes …

Whole-genome duplication (WGD), which leads to polyploidy, is implicated in adaptation
and speciation. But what are the immediate effects of WGD and how do newly polyploid …

Abstract Whole-genome duplication (WGD), or polyploidy, events are widespread and
significant in the evolutionary history of angiosperms. However, empirical evidence for …

Polyploidization is frequently associated with increased transposable element (TE) content.
However, what drives TE dynamics following whole genome duplication (WGD) and the …

Parallel adaptation provides valuable insight into the predictability of evolutionary change
through replicated natural experiments. A steadily increasing number of studies have …

Abstract Analysis of population genetic structure has become a standard approach in
population genetics. In polyploid complexes, clustering analyses can elucidate the origin of …

Polyploidy, the result of whole-genome duplication (WGD), is a major driver of eukaryote
evolution. Yet WGDs are hugely disruptive mutations, and we still lack a clear understanding …

Polyploidy, which results from whole genome duplication (WGD), has shaped the long-term
evolution of eukaryotic genomes in all kingdoms. Polyploidy is also implicated in adaptation …

Polyploidy is recurrent across the tree of life and known as an evolutionary driving force in
plant diversification and crop domestication. How polyploid plants adapt to various habitats …
