Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic Plasticity and the Diversity of Polyploid Plants

TL;DR: The ability to withstand large-scale changes, frequently within one or a few generations, is associated with a restructuring of the transcriptome, metabolome, and proteome and can result in an altered phenotype and ecology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extensive chromosomal variation in a recently formed natural allopolyploid species, Tragopogon miscellus (Asteraceae)

TL;DR: A molecular cytogenetic study on natural populations of a neoallopolyploid, Tragopogon miscellus, which formed multiple times in the past 80 y, uncovered massive and repeated patterns of chromosomal variation in all populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

The ups and downs of genome size evolution in polyploid species of Nicotiana (Solanaceae).

TL;DR: There was no discernable pattern in the direction of genome size change with age of polyploids, although with increasing age the amount of genome sizes change increased.
