This project explores the evolutionary significance of whole genome duplications in polyploid species. By conducting experiments on model organisms, it aims to understand how polyploidy contributes to adaptability and survival in changing environments.
Thousands of species are polyploid.
However, the long-term establishment of organisms that have undergone ancient whole genome duplications (WGDs) has been exceedingly rare and when we analyse the genomes of plants and animals, we can, at most, find evidence for a very limited number of WGDs that survived on the longer term.
The paucity of (established) ancient genome duplications and the existence of so many species that are currently polyploid provides a fascinating paradox.
