Hybridization, polyploidy and invasion: lessons from Spartina (Poaceae) (2009, background): “Wolfe 2001; McLysaght et al. 2002; Cui et al. 2006), has generated a growing interest in the genomic consequences of polyploidy.”
Genome duplication in the teleost fish Tetraodon nigroviridis reveals the early vertebrate proto-karyotype (2004, background): “Evidence for whole-genome duplication The occurrence of WGD in the ray-finned fish lineage is a hotly debated question due both to the cataclysmic nature of such an event and to the difficulty in establishing that it actually occurre”
The Incidence of Polyploidy in Natural Plant Populations: Major Patterns and Evolutionary Processes (2013, background): “This evidence can occur without a concomitant duplication in chromosome number, suggesting that either genomic restructuring and duplication are occurring on a large scale within an existing set of chromosomes (not polyploidy) or polyploidization has occurred in the distant evolutionary past and was”
Mating Consequences of Polyploid Evolution in Flowering Plants: Current Trends and Insights from Synthetic Polyploids (2008, background): “Based on chromosome number, between 57% and 70% of angiosperm species have been estimated to be polyploid (Grant 1963; Masterson 1994); this value may be closer to 100% if one considers the incidence of paleopolyploids detected through comparative genomics (Wolfe 2001; Cui et al. 2006).”

Non-Mendelian Phenomena in Allopolyploid Genome Evolution (2002, background): “Polyploidy, resulting from either duplication of a single but complete genome (autopolyploidy) or from combination of two or more differentiated genomes (allopolyploidy), is a prominent mode of speciation in plants [1-8], and has also been significant in the evolution of vertebrates and possibly man”
Generating and Filtering Major Phenotypic Novelties: NeoGoldschmidtian Saltation Revisited (2002, background): “Gene duplication, both en masse through polyploidy (Walbot, 2000; Wolfe, 2001) and individually, may immediately provide a larger amount of transcript or be followed by a 'gain-of function' mutation.”
From Diploids to Allopolyploids: The Emergence of Efficient Pairing Control Genes in Plants (2004, background): “In addition, the pairing suppressors identified in the diploid species could also be of particular benefit in precluding ectopic exchanges between the duplicated regions that have been observed within many diploid genomes (Schmidt et al., 2001; Wolfe, 2001).”
Grammar of protein domain architectures (2019, background): “S1) for unigram entropies are notably flatter in eukaryotes than they are in prokaryotes, which is likely to reflect the substantially greater contribution of gene duplication to the increase of the proteome size in eukaryotes compared with prokaryotes (56 – 60).”

A recent polyploidy superimposed on older large-scale duplications in the Arabidopsis genome. (2003, background): “…of the Arabidopsis genome, one of the most surprising discoveries revealed by its sequence is that, like the Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Wolfe and Shields 1997) and human (Lander et al. 2001; Venter et al. 2001; Gu et al. 2002; McLysaght et al. 2002) genomes, it contains numerous large…”
