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 ...

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 5, September/October 2026.Abstract Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is an important perennial forage crop and a highly heterozygous autotetraploid species (2n = 4x = 32), making high‐density linkage mapping challenging. This study evaluated the effects of reference genome choice and population size on the development of genetic linkage maps using genotyping‐by‐sequencing‐derived ...

Groundnut Improvement for Aflatoxin Resistance: Progress and Opportunities
Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 5, September/October 2026.ABSTRACT Groundnut, or peanut, is an industrial oilseed crop that serves the food and feed industries and provides income along the value chain. Pre‐ and post‐harvest aflatoxin contamination, caused by Aspergillus spp., hinders the food and feed value and market opportunities of groundnut products. Developing and deploying aflatoxin‐resistant varieties

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 Arabidopsis arenosa is a close relative of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, and exists in nature as stable diploid and autotetraploid populations. Natural tetraploids have adapted to whole genome duplication and do not commonly show meiotic errors ...

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.Abstract Genomic selection (GS) is a powerful tool for accelerating genetic gain in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) breeding, particularly for complex traits. In this study, three practical aspects of GS implementation in a potato breeding program were examined.

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 ...

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

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.Abstract Eragrostis curvula is a forage grass species in which multiple cytotypes coexist and shifts between sexual and apomictic reproduction are common. This study investigates genetic variation among these cytotypes in relation to ploidy levels and reproductive modes.
