Journal ArticleDOI
Ribosomal ITS sequences and plant phylogenetic inference.
Inés Álvarez,Jonathan F. Wendel +1 more
TL;DR: Despite the near-universal usage of ITS sequence data in plant phylogenetic studies, its complex and unpredictable evolutionary behavior reduce its utility for phylogenetic analysis, and it is suggested that more robust insights are likely to emerge from the use of single-copy or low-copy nuclear genes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome evolution in polyploids
TL;DR: Processes and mechanisms of gene and genome evolution in polyploids are reviewed, including the role of transposable elements in structural and regulatory gene evolution; processes and significance of epigenetic silencing; underlying controls of chromosome pairing and mechanisms and functional significance of rapid genome changes are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polyploidy and genome evolution in plants.
TL;DR: Evidence is now supported by evidence showing that genes that are retained in duplicate typically diversify in function or undergo subfunctionalization, with some duplicate genes more prone to retention than others.
Book ChapterDOI
Visualization and Interpretation of Plant Isozymes
TL;DR: Data retrieved from electrophoretic gels consist of the number and relative mobilities of various enzyme products, which with appropriate genetic analyses become transformed into single or multilocus genotypes for each individual analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Repeated polyploidization of Gossypium genomes and the evolution of spinnable cotton fibres

TL;DR: It is shown that an abrupt five- to sixfold ploidy increase approximately 60 million years (Myr) ago, and allopolyploidy reuniting divergent Gossypium genomes approximately 1–2 Myr ago, conferred about 30–36-fold duplication of ancestral angiosperm genes in elite cottons, genetic complexity equalled only by Brassica among sequenced angiosperms.
