Plant Genome
. 2020 Nov;
8(2):eplantgenome2014.11.0088.
PMID: 33228305
Stabilization of transposable element (TE) copy number involves the biosynthesis of short silencing RNAs (siRNAs) and further initialization of siRNA-mediated TE silencing. To gain insight into the relationship between the...

BMC Genomics
. 2020 Feb;
21(1):98.
PMID: 32000670
Background: Repetitive DNA is a major component of plant genomes and is thought to be a driver of evolutionary novelty. Describing variation in repeat content among individuals and between populations...

Mol Biol Evol
. 2017 Apr;
34(8):1825-1832.
PMID: 28430989
The maize genome experienced an ancient whole genome duplication ∼10 MYA and the duplicate subgenomes have since experienced reciprocal gene loss such that many genes have returned to single-copy status....

Genome Biol Evol
. 2016 Jun;
8(6):1940-7.
PMID: 27289095
Domesticated cotton species provide raw material for the majority of the world's textile industry. Two independent domestication events have been identified in allopolyploid cotton, one in Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum...

New Phytol
. 2015 Jun;
208(2):596-607.
PMID: 26061193
Plants exhibit an extraordinary range of genome sizes, varying by > 2000-fold between the smallest and largest recorded values. In the absence of polyploidy, changes in the amount of repetitive...

Mol Biol Evol
. 2015 Jan;
32(4):1063-71.
PMID: 25573906
The importance of whole-genome multiplication (WGM) in plant evolution has long been recognized. In flowering plants, WGM is both ubiquitous and in many lineages cyclical, each round followed by substantial...

BMC Plant Biol
. 2014 Dec;
14:383.
PMID: 25547313
Background: Centromeric DNA sequences alone are neither necessary nor sufficient for centromere specification. The centromere specific histone, CenH3, evolves rapidly in many species, perhaps as a coevolutionary response to rapidly...

Am J Bot
. 2014 Aug;
101(10):1711-25.
PMID: 25090999
Polyploidy, or whole genome multiplication, is ubiquitous among angiosperms. Many crop species are relatively recent allopolyploids, resulting from interspecific hybridization and polyploidy. Thus, an appreciation of the evolutionary consequences of...

Genome Biol Evol
. 2014 Feb;
6(3):559-71.
PMID: 24558256
Whole genome duplication (WGD) is widespread in flowering plants and is a driving force in angiosperm diversification. The redundancy introduced by WGD allows the evolution of novel gene interactions and...

Plant J
. 2013 Mar;
74(5):829-39.
PMID: 23517128
Recent advances have highlighted the ubiquity of whole-genome duplication (polyploidy) in angiosperms, although subsequent genome size change and diploidization (returning to a diploid-like condition) are poorly understood. An excellent system...
