Reinventing potato as a diploid inbred line-based crop

open access: yes, 2016
The third most important food crop worldwide, potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a tetraploid outcrossing species propagated from tubers. Breeders have long been challenged by polyploidy, heterozygosity, and asexual reproduction.

Effect of Induced Polyploidy on Morphology, Antioxidant Activity, and Dissolved Sugars in Allium cepa L.

open access: yesHorticulturae
The role of onion as the second most-consumed and cultivated vegetable around the world and its renowned qualities that lead it to be called the “queen of the kitchen” have positioned it as a vital source of nutritional and economic contributions around ...

Fitness Cost and Competitive Ability to Different Ploidy Levels in Ryegrass Genotypes [PDF]

open access: yesPlanta Daninha
: The intergenotypic competition of tetraploid ryegrass with natural diploid population may be a tool to reduce the frequency of resistant individuals in an area.

Diversity in Diploid, Tetraploid, and Mixed Diploid–Tetraploid Populations of Paspalum simplex

open access: yesCrop Science, 2013
ABSTRACTThe tetraploid cytotype of Paspalum simplex Morong has a wide geographical distribution and reproduces by apomixis while the diploid grows in a restricted area in northern Argentina and behaves as cross‐pollinated. The objective was to evaluate the genetic diversity among and within natural diploid and tetraploid populations of P.

Cytogeography and chromosomal variation of the endemic East Asian herb Lycoris radiata

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Information on the spatial distribution of cytotypes and karyotype variation in plants is critical for studies of the origin and evolution of polyploid complexes.

The draft genome of a diploid cotton Gossypium raimondii

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2012
We have sequenced and assembled a draft genome of G. raimondii, whose progenitor is the putative contributor of the D subgenome to the economically important fiber-producing cotton species Gossypium hirsutum and Gossypium barbadense.

Comparative Small RNA Analysis of Pollen Development in Autotetraploid and Diploid Rice

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2016
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play key roles in plant reproduction. However, knowledge on microRNAome analysis in autotetraploid rice is rather limited. Here, high-throughput sequencing technology was employed to analyze miRNAomes during pollen development in ...

Unidirectional diploid–tetraploid introgression among British birch trees with shifting ranges shown by restriction site‐associated markers

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, 2016
Hybridization may lead to introgression of genes among species. Introgression may be bidirectional or unidirectional, depending on factors such as the demography of the hybridizing species, or the nature of reproductive barriers between them.

Screening and analysis on the differentially expression genes between diploid and autotetraploid watermelon by using of digital gene expression profile

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology, 2018
Synthetic polyploids are key breeding materials for watermelon. Compared with diploid watermelon, the tetraploid watermelon often exhibit wide phenotypic differences and differential gene expression.

The diploid genome sequence of an Asian individual

open access: yesNature, 2008
Here we present the first diploid genome sequence of an Asian individual. The genome was sequenced to 36-fold average coverage using massively parallel sequencing technology.
