Genome duplication in amphibians and fish: an extended synthesis (2011, methodology): “Using the Cyprinidae and Salmonidae to illustrate attributes of polyploidy in fishes, Le Comber & Smith (2004) conclude that polyploidy may have been of considerable importance in the evolution of fishes.”
Polyploidy and angiosperm diversification. (2009, background): “Only the tetraploidization event in the stem lineage of ray-fi nned fi sh may come close, having potentially resulted in > 20 000 living species ( Le Comber and Smith, 2004 ; Gregory and Mable, 2005 ).”
Trophic level scales positively with body size in fishes (2011, background): “Furthermore, and of particular relevance here, adult fishes vary in size by more than four orders of magnitude (Hutchings, 2002; Le Comber & Smith, 2004), the entire range of which may be experienced by a single individual during its lifetime.”
The role of hybridization in plant speciation. (2009, background): “Polyploidy has also been important in the subsequent evolution of amphibians (21), as well as salmonids and other fish (10, 44, 89, 127).”
