• Genome duplication in amphibians and fish: an extended synthesis (2011, background): “…flexibility provided by extra genome copies and the potential for regulatory innovation provided by extensive gene duplication (e.g. Levin, 1983; Soltis & Soltis, 2000; Beçak & Kobashi, 2004), which could broaden ecological tolerances and result in polyploids being able to survive harsher…”
• Mating Consequences of Polyploid Evolution in Flowering Plants: Current Trends and Insights from Synthetic Polyploids (2008, background): “…is the product of expression of one of the homoeologous genomes, allopolyploids will have the same capacity to mask deleterious mutations as a diploid, and thus selective forces on their mating systems may be unlikely to differ (Soltis and Soltis 2000; Comai 2005; Galloway and Etterson 2007).”
• Gene loss, silencing and activation in a newly synthesized wheat allotetraploid. (2002, background): “In plants, Guo et al. (1996) have analyzed theof evolution that affects genome size and gene copy number (Soltis and Soltis 2000; Wendel 2000).”
• Mitotic chromosome doubling of plant tissues in vitro (2010, background): “As a consequence, polyploids can be better adapted to broader ecological amplitudes (Soltis and Soltis 2000).”
• Influence of ploidy level on morphology, growth and drought susceptibility in Spathiphyllum wallisii (2011, positive): “As a consequence, polyploids are very successful due to their better adaptation in broader ecological amplitudes (Soltis and Soltis 2000).”
• Influence of phylogeny and ploidy on species ranges of North American angiosperms (2009, background): “Secondly, polyploidy may affect the evolution of a species’ range by increasing the capacity for genetic variation, the probability of beneficial mutations and the potential for novel adaptive responses to selection (Stebbins 1985; Levin 2000; Otto & Whitton 2000; Soltis & Soltis 2002).”
• Non-Mendelian Phenomena in Allopolyploid Genome Evolution (2002, background): “Genetic diploidization in the present context refers to the phenomenon whereby expression levels in a polyploid are reduced to those of one of the diploid progenitors, by either gene silencing or dosage compensation [29,33].”
