This project investigates the role of whole genome duplication in plant adaptation. By studying various plant species, it aims to determine if genome duplication enhances the ability to adapt and accumulate beneficial genetic variations in natural populations.
Whole genome duplication (WGD, polyploidization) is arguably the most massive genome-wide mutation whose ubiquity across eukaryotes suggests an adaptive benefit, though no mechanism has been identified.
Consequently, a large controversy dominates the field whether WGD represents net benefit or detriment to evolutionary success.I will test if WGD promotes adaptation in natural populations and address the underlying mechanism by estimating net fitness benefit of WGD vs. the role of post-WGD accumu…
