The frequency and importance of polyploidy in tropical rainforest tree radiations
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary The presence of two or more copies of the genome in an organism, termed ‘polyploidy’, is a crucial force in plant evolution, generating genetic, phenotypic and ecological diversity. The Amazonian tree flora is the most species‐rich on Earth and largely arose as a result of rapid evolutionary radiations. While polyploidy is an important catalyst
