Polyploidy: an evolutionary and ecological force in stressful times
Polyploidy has been hypothesized to be both an evolutionary dead-end and a source for
evolutionary innovation and species diversification. Although polyploid organisms …

Evolution of plant genome architecture
We have witnessed an explosion in our understanding of the evolution and structure of plant
genomes in recent years. Here, we highlight three important emergent realizations:(1) that …

Genomic diversifications of five Gossypium allopolyploid species and their impact on cotton improvement
Polyploidy is an evolutionary innovation for many animals and all flowering plants, but its
impact on selection and domestication remains elusive. Here we analyze genome evolution …

Polyploidy and genome evolution in plants
Plant genomes vary in size and complexity, fueled in part by processes of whole-genome
duplication (WGD; polyploidy) and subsequent genome evolution. Despite repeated …

Temporal transcriptome profiling reveals expression partitioning of homeologous genes contributing to heat and drought acclimation in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
Z Liu, M **n, J Qin, H Peng, Z Ni, Y Yao, Q Sun - BMC plant biology, 2015 - Springer
Abstract Background Hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a globally important crop. Heat,
drought and their combination dramatically reduce wheat yield and quality, but the …

Polyploidy: pitfalls and paths to a paradigm
Investigators have long searched for a polyploidy paradigm—rules or principles that might
be common following polyploidization (whole‐genome duplication, WGD). Here we attempt …
