This project investigates how the structure and function of plant genomes evolve, focusing on the Nicotiana sect. Suaveolentes. It aims to understand how genomic rearrangements relate to adaptation in varying habitats, particularly in response to climate change.
The structure and function of plant genomes have been marked by a history of repeated cycles of whole genome duplications followed by diploidization.
Despite the number of duplications in their ancestry, most extant plants, particularly herbaceous groups, exhibit low chromosome numbers (e.g. five pairs in Arabidopsis), but the drivers of this descending dysploidy remain little understood.
The project will test a classical hypothesis from early in the last century that chromosomal reorganization…
