“…Most of the reported examples about ecological consequences of polyploidization, which use nicheâmodeling approaches, come from studies focused on allopolyploids. Although several studies show niche divergence between allopolyploids and at least one of their progenitors (Glennon et al., , ; Theodoridis et al., ; Harbert et al., ; Han et al., ; LĂłpezâAlvarez et al., ; Marchant et al., ), other studies show allopolyploid lineages have intermediate or nonâdivergent ecological niches (Oberprieler et al., ; Glennon et al., ; Harbert et al., ; Boucher et al., ; Marchant et al., ; Casazza et al., ). For autopolyploids, some studies have found significant ecological segregation between polyploids and their ancestors (Schönswetter et al., ; Stahlberg, ; Thompson et al., ; HĂŒlber et al., ; ZozomovĂĄâLihovĂĄ et al., ; Lazaroff et al., ; MandĂĄk et al., ; Mered'a et al., ; Sonnleitner et al., ; Visger et al., ), and yet other studies find no ecological divergence between cytotypes (Godsoe et al., ; Hanzl et al., ).…”
