This project investigates the formation and reproductive barriers of polyploid plants, focusing on the triploid block that hinders seed viability. By studying various species, it aims to uncover genetic networks and physiological changes, ultimately enhancing plant breeding techniques.
Polyploidization is a major force in the evolution of both wild and cultivated plants.
The remarkable superiority of polyploids has been noticed plant breeders, who have used this trait in different approaches in order to obtain increasingly improved plant cultivars.
Moreover, polyploidization is likely to be one of the most important mechanisms of sympatric speciation.
All seed plants have experienced at least one round of whole genome duplication in their evolutionary history.
The formation o…
