Doubling down on genomes: polyploidy and crop plants
Polyploidy, or whole genome multiplication, is ubiquitous among angiosperms. Many crop
species are relatively recent allopolyploids, resulting from interspecific hybridization and …

A reference genome for Nicotiana tabacum enables map-based cloning of homeologous loci implicated in nitrogen utilization efficiency
Abstract Background Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) is an important plant model system that
has played a key role in the early development of molecular plant biology. The tobacco …

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 …

Subgenome dominance in an interspecific hybrid, synthetic allopolyploid, and a 140-year-old naturally established neo-allopolyploid monkeyflower
Recent studies have shown that one of the parental subgenomes in ancient polyploids is
generally more dominant, having retained more genes and being more highly expressed, a …

In Depth Characterization of Repetitive DNA in 23 Plant Genomes Reveals Sources of Genome Size Variation in the Legume Tribe Fabeae
The differential accumulation and elimination of repetitive DNA are key drivers of genome
size variation in flowering plants, yet there have been few studies which have analysed how …
