Abstract:Determining the Fate of Hybridized Genomes in the Allopolyploid Brassica napus
Tina Ying WangPolyploidy is widely acknowledged as a widespread mechanism in the evolution and speciation of the majority of flowering plants. Allopolyploid forms through interspecific hybridization and whole genome duplication. While allopolyploids may display increased vigor relative to their progenitors, they can also face challenges to fertility following hybridization. Genetic changes in allopolyploids result from recombination… Show more
