In Vitro Synthetic Polyploidization in Medicinal and Aromatic Plants for Enhanced Phytochemical Efficacy—A Mini-Review

Agronomy
Medicinal and aromatic plants (MAPs) are well known for their valuable secondary metabolites and diverse phytochemicals responsible for a plethora of medicinal properties such as antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancerous, and analgesic

Nitrous Oxide Treatment after Pollination Induces Ploidy Changes in Statice (Limonium sp.)

Horticulturae
The production of statice (Limonium sp.) plants with higher ploidy through induction of whole-genome duplication (WGD) via the spindle disrupter nitrous oxide (N2O) was examined as a strategy to increase the germplasm diversity of the species ...

Sexual polyploidization in Medicago sativa L.: Impact on the phenotype, gene transcription, and genome methylation

, 2016
Polyploidization as the consequence of 2n gamete formation is a prominent mechanism in plant evolution. Studying its effects on the genome, and on genome expression, has both basic and applied interest.

Evidence for spontaneous polyploidization in cassava Manihot esculenta Crantz

, 2009
Cassava, Manihot esculenta Crantz (Euphorbiaceae), is a major tropical crop. It is a diploid and sexually fertile, but confined to vegetative propagation in agriculture.

Divergent evolutionary paces among eudicot plants revealed by simultaneously duplicated genes produced billions of years ago

Frontiers in Plant Science
Polyploidization often occurs more than once along an evolutionary lineage to form extant plants. Major core eudicot plants share a whole-genome triplication (ceWGT), through which thousands of simultaneously duplicated genes are retained in extant ...

Strain and site dependence of polyploidization of cultured rat smooth muscle

, 1986
Smooth muscle cell (SMC) growth may play an important role in the pathogenesis of vascular diseases such as atherosclerosis and hypertension. Recent studies have demonstrated that, under different growth stimuli in vivo, SMC may respond by proliferation ...

Polyploidy-mediated resilience in hepatic aging: molecular mechanisms and functional implication

Egyptian Liver Journal
Background Polyploidization, a process where cells acquire additional chromosome sets, is a unique characteristic of hepatocytes. This process has been increasingly recognized as an adaptive mechanism for maintaining liver function during aging, a period

Evolutionary history and polyploidization lead to rapid shifts in chemodiversity of Hypericum

Polyploidization can profoundly affect plant metabolite biosynthesis, yet its influence on chemodiversity remains poorly understood, despite the central role of chemodiversity in mediating plant interactions with the environment.

Netlogo polyploidization model

Polyploidization is associated with lineage-specific changes that promote divergence and speciation. Knowledge about the establishment of neopolyploids is fragmentary.
