The development of climate change resilient crops is necessary if we are to meet the
challenge of feeding the growing world's population. We must be able to increase food …

Polyploidy, or genome doubling, has occurred repeatedly through plant evolution. While
polyploid plants are used extensively in agriculture and horticulture, they have so far found …

Polyploidization is a widespread phenomenon, especially in flowering plants that have all
undergone at least one event of whole genome duplication during their evolutionary history …

Polyploids are species in which three or more sets of chromosomes coexist. Polyploidy
frequently occurs in plants and plays a major role in their evolution. Based on their origin …

Polyploidization is an ancient and recurrent process in plant evolution, impacting the
diversification of natural populations and plant breeding strategies. Polyploidization occurs …

Background Autopolyploids, especially artificial lines, provide model systems for
understanding the mechanisms of gene dosage effects on trait variation owing to their …

The review focuses on the genetic consequences of interspecific hybridization and
discusses its role in speciation and increasing the genetic diversity of plants, including the …

Polyploidization has been traditionally considered a phenomenon that mediates ecological
differentiation; however, the adaptive value of genome duplications has been seldom …

Both mutualism and polyploidy are thought to influence invasion success in plants, but few
studies have tested their joint effects. Mutualism can limit range expansion when plants …

Polyploidy has been widely described in many Agave L. species, but its influence on
environmental response to stress is still unknown. With the objective of knowing the …
