Abstract Oxalis oulophora, a diploid species closely related to the octoploid Andean tuber crop oca (Oxalis tuberosa), was selected for whole‐genome sequencing to aid in understanding the origins of polyploidy and domestication in oca and its relatives (crop wild relatives).

Skim‐sequencing for genomic selection in wheat: a comparison of marker platforms
Abstract The promise of genomics‐assisted breeding relies on efficient, affordable, and abundant molecular markers. Leveraging modern sequencing technology, commercial laboratory products, and open‐source software, we demonstrate how ultra‐low whole‐genome sequencing coverage (skim‐seq, 0.05–0.10x) can be a viable marker platform. The direct generation

Abstract Epigenetic regulation plays a central role in coordinating peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) fruit pegging, a unique developmental process in which fertilized ovaries transition from aerial growth to subterranean pod formation. This review synthesizes current evidence demonstrating that dynamic interactions among DNA methylation, histone ...

Using genomic selection to examine subgenome dominance and epistasis in allopolyploid strawberry
Abstract Allopolyploids are organisms that possess multiple sets of chromosomes derived from distinct ancestral species, resulting in multiple subgenomes. Many important crops are allopolyploid, including wheat (Triticum aestivum), cotton (Gossypium hirsutum), coffee (Coffea arabica), and strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa).

Abstract Upon harvest, potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers enter a dormant state and do not sprout even under favorable conditions. Early dormancy break causes tuber spoilage and reduces postharvest quality. Common sprout control methods may compromise tuber quality, raise health and environmental concerns, and increase costs.

The potential for introgression in a British polyploid complex
The potential for introgression in the British Senecio polyploid complex was investigated using numerical taxonomic methods. It has been suggested that introgression of the introduced Mediterranean diploid S. squalidus L. into the native British tetraploid species S. vulgaris var.

Abstract Meiotic recombination is essential for generating genetic diversity, driving plant evolution, and enabling crop improvement, yet its uneven distribution across genomes constrains breeding efforts. Here, we investigated the multi‐omic landmarks that shape the recombination landscape in Brassica napus by integrating epigenomic, genomic, and ...

Abstract Common bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] is an economically and ecologically important warm‐season perennial species widely used for turf, forage, and soil conservation and remediation. Seeding offers economic and practical advantages over vegetative propagation for establishing common bermudagrass.

Genomic life‐history traits such as ploidy clearly shape gradual and orthogonal grassland plant community compositional responses to both habitat loss and nutrient pollution, that is, two main drivers of extinction. Our study thus introduces a predictive, genomic trait‐based framework for assessing local extinction risks in landscapes characterized by ...

Influence of Ploidy and Genetic Background on Stress Tolerance of Intraspecific Yeast Hybrids
A large set of intraspecific yeast hybrids was constructed using two strategies that yielded series of hybrids with variable ploidy. Phenotyping of the hybrids was carried out in high‐stress media to assess the effects of ploidy and genetic background on heterosis.
