Polyploidy, or the duplication of entire genomes, has been observed in prokaryotic and
eukaryotic organisms, and in somatic and germ cells. The consequences of polyploidization …

Ancient duplication events and a high rate of retention of extant pairs of duplicate genes
have contributed to an abundance of duplicate genes in plant genomes. These duplicates …

Green plants (Viridiplantae) include around 450,000–500,000 species, of great diversity and
have important roles in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Here, as part of the One …

Background The sharp increase of plant genome and transcriptome data provide valuable
resources to investigate evolutionary consequences of gene duplication in a range of taxa …

Polyploidy, resulting from the duplication of the entire genome of an organism or cell, greatly
affects genes and genomes, cells and tissues, organisms, and even entire ecosystems …

Main conclusion This article provides an up-to-date review concerning from basic issues of
polyploidy to aspects regarding the relevance and role of both natural and artificial …

Ancient whole-genome duplications (WGDs or polyploidy) are prevalent in plants, and some
WGDs occurred during the timing of severe global environmental changes. It has been …

Whole-genome duplication (WGD) is characteristic of almost all fundamental lineages of
land plants. Unfortunately, the timings of WGD events are loosely constrained and …

Whole-genome duplication (WGD) events have shaped the history of many evolutionary
lineages. One such duplication has been implicated in the evolution of teleost fishes, by far …

Premise of the Study Polyploidy or whole‐genome duplication (WGD) pervades the
evolutionary history of angiosperms. Despite extensive progress in our understanding of …
