The “Polyploid Hop”: Shifting Challenges and Opportunities Over the Evolutionary Lifespan of Genome Duplications (2018, background): “In particular, genomic stress brought on by hybridization or polyploidization has global effects on epigenetic regulation and may thereby lead to TE reactivation (Kashkush et al., 2003; Madlung et al., 2005; Lopes et al., 2013; Springer et al., 2016; Edger et al., 2017).”
Polyploidy and Crop Improvement (2006, background): “Though unlikely to cause tissue-dependent or genome-wide gene suppression, retrotransposons have been activated in recent polyploids, and their reinsertion may cause suppression of expression of nearby genes (Kashkush et al., 2003; Madlung et al., 2005).”
