All flowering plants have experienced repeated rounds of polyploidy (whole-genome duplication), which has in turn driven the evolution of novel phenotypes and ecological tolerances and been a major ...

Allopolyploidy results from two events: the merger of divergent genomes and genome duplication. Both events have important functional consequences for the evolution and adaptation of newly formed ...

The processes by which two genomes adapt to coexistence within the same nucleus are complex and can differ markedly between species. Ongoing studies of natural hybrid systems, such as Tragopogon and ...
