Polyploidy, or whole genome duplication, is recognized as an important feature of eukaryotic
genome evolution. Among eukaryotes, polyploidy has probably had the largest evolutionary …

Polyploidy, or the presence of two or more diploid parental genome sets within an organism,
is found to an amazing degree in higher plants. In addition, many plant species traditionally …

Publisher Summary This chapter provides a discussion of recent advancements, in context
to plant polyploidy. Polyploidy plays a very important role in plant evolution. Major recent …

Genome doubling (polyploidy) has been and continues to be a pervasive force in plant
evolution. Modern plant genomes harbor evidence of multiple rounds of past …

Polyploidy is important in the evolutionary history of plants, and it has played a crucial role in
shaping the genome structures of all eukaryotes. New and rapidly improving techniques in …

Polyploidy is a very common phenomenon in the plant kingdom, where even diploid species
are often described as paleopolyploids. The polyploid condition may bring about several …

Polyploidy (whole-genome duplication; WGD) is common in plants and has long been
considered as both an important speciation mechanism and a crucial component of plant …

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

Background Polyploidy or whole-genome duplication is now recognized as being present in
almost all lineages of higher plants, with multiple rounds of polyploidy occurring in most …

Polyploidy has been widely appreciated as an important force in the evolution of plant
genomes, but now it is recognized as a common phenomenon throughout eukaryotic …
