Polyploidization has played an important role in plant evolution. However, upon polyploidization, the process of meiosis must adapt to ensure the proper segregation of increased numbers of chromosomes
Polyploidy is a major driving force in angiosperm evolution, but our understanding of establishment and early diversification processes following allo- vs. auto-polyploidy is limited. An excellent sys
Polyploids play an important role in the breeding of plant for superior characteristics, and many reports have focused on the effects upon photosynthesis from polyploidization in some plant species re
Polyploids generally show vegetative growth superiority, higher biological yield, and enhanced resistance compared to diploids, which may become a novel approach in plant breeding; however, the mechan
The data are presented as mean ± standard deviation. Different lower case letters indicate significant differences between diploid and tetraploid level in the same haplotype at a p < 0.05 level.
