SummaryPolyploidy is a dominant feature of extant plant diversity. However, major research questions, including whether polyploidy is important to long‐term evolution or is just ‘evolutionary noise’, remain unresolved due to difficulties associated with the generation and analysis of data from polyploid lineages.

Polyploids are organisms with three or more complete chromosome sets. Polyploidization is widespread in plants and animals, and is an important mechanism of speciation. Genome sequencing and related molecular systematics and bioinformatics studies on plants and animals in recent years support the view that species have been shaped by whole genome ...

Polyploidy breaks speciation barriers in Australian burrowing frogs Neobatrachus [PDF]
Polyploidy has played an important role in evolution across the tree of life but it is still unclear how polyploid lineages may persist after their initial formation.

Priors for Genotyping Polyploids [PDF]
AbstractMotivationEmpirical Bayes techniques to genotype polyploid organisms usually either (i) assume technical artifacts are knowna priorior (ii) estimate technical artifacts simultaneously with the prior genotype distribution. Case (i) is unappealing as it places the onus on the researcher to estimate these artifacts, or to ensure that there are no ...

Paleo-Polyploidization in Lycophytes
Abstract Lycophytes and seed plants constitute the typical vascular plants. Lycophytes have been thought to have no paleo-polyploidization although the event is known to be critical for the fast expansion of seed plants. Here, genomic analyses including the homologous gene dot plot analysis detected multiple paleo-polyploidization events,

Niche divergence and limits to expansion in the high polyploid Dianthus broteri complex [PDF]
Niche evolution in plant polyploids remains controversial and evidence for alternative patterns has been reported. Using the autopolyploid Dianthus broteri complex (2×, 4×, 6× and 12×) as a model, we aimed to integrate three scenarios – competitive ...

Polyploidization and domestication [PDF]
Crop domestication is the process to domesticate and propagate wild plants into cultivated crops, and its essence is to purposefully preserve the genetic variation information on the genome through artificial selection. Domestication has played an important role in the origin and evolution of human farming civilization, and promoted the sustainable ...

The polyploid continuum and the landscape of polyploid genomic variation. [PDF]
Abstract Polyploid research has traditionally distinguished between autopolyploids and allopolyploids on the basis of evolutionary origins, modes of inheritance, or chromosomal pairing behavior during meiosis. It has long been recognized, however, that a binary classification does not accurately reflect the complexity and diversity ...

Celiac Immunogenic Potential of α-Gliadin Epitope Variants from Triticum and Aegilops Species [PDF]
The high global demand of wheat and its subsequent consumption arise from the physicochemical properties of bread dough and its contribution to the protein intake in the human diet.
