Haplotype‐resolved autotetraploid genome of Dioscorea nipponica provides insights into recent polyploidization, metabolic rewiring, and environmental adaptation

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 127, Issue 6, September 2026.
SUMMARY Whole‐genome duplication (WGD, or polyploidization) is a major evolutionary force in plants, yet the genomic, transcriptional, and metabolic consequences of autopolyploidy remain less understood than those of allopolyploidy. Dioscorea nipponica, a medicinal species producing diosgenin‐type steroidal saponins, harbors both diploid and ...
