Implications of polyploidy events on the phenotype, microstructure, and proteome of Paulownia australis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Polyploidy events are believed to be responsible for increasing the size of plant organs and enhancing tolerance to environmental stresses. Autotetraploid Paulownia australis plants exhibit superior traits compared with their diploid progenitors ...

Samplify: a versatile tool for image‐based segmentation and annotation of seed abortion phenotypes
New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1964-1978, May 2026.Summary Automated seed phenotyping has wide applications in research and agriculture and relies on easy‐to‐use platforms and pipelines. Seed phenotyping in the model species Arabidopsis thaliana poses a significant challenge due to the large number of tiny seeds produced by individual plants, which are difficult to manually separate and count.

Transcriptome Analysis of Diploid and Autotetraploid Hemerocallis Response to Drought Stress
Horticulturae, 2023 Chromosome doubling in ornamental plants, as shown by our study in daylilies (Hemerocallis spp.), has great potential to increase tolerance to abiotic stress. Drought is the most critical growth-limiting factor in a changing climate. Drought tolerance is

Recombination suppression in plant adaptation and speciation
New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 4, Page 2061-2077, May 2026.Summary Recombination suppression is increasingly recognized as an important facilitator of genomic divergence and speciation, especially under ongoing gene flow. In plants, however, the broader evolutionary consequences and the mechanisms by which recombination suppression arises and spreads are still incompletely understood, reflecting the inherent ...

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Premise Insect herbivory is a major biotic factor shaping plant populations and driving the evolution of defensive traits. Polyploidy (whole‐genome duplication) often induces substantial phenotypic and genotypic changes that may affect species interactions, including herbivory.

DNA methylation alteration is a major consequence of genome doubling in autotetraploid Brassica rapa [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2017 Polyploids are typically classified as autopolyploids or allopolyploids based on the origin of their chromosome sets. Autopolyploidy is much more common than traditionally believed. Allopolyploidization, accompanied by genomic and transcriptomic

Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, 2022 The aim of this study was to assess genetic diversity among 40 alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) genotypes of different non-dormant (FD=8) cultivars. Biomass yield, regrowth speed and reaction to spring black stem, lepto leaf spot, and rust were evaluated ...

Improvement of growth and bacoside production in Bacopa monnieri through induced autotetraploidy with colchicine [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Bacopa monnieri is a medicinal herb that is increasing in demand in Thailand. However, the lack of high-bacoside cultivars has limited pharmaceutical utilization and production. Here, chromosome doubling in B.
