• The more the better? The role of polyploidy in facilitating plant invasions. (2012, background): “Likewise, Petit and Thompson (1999) found no evidence for differences in range size between diploids and polyploids among 451 species of 50 genera in the flora of the Pyrenees.”
• The scaling of genome size and cell size limits maximum rates of photosynthesis with implications for ecological strategies (2019, background): “Furthermore, these tests frequently find that diploids exhibit greater habitat breadth than polyploids (Petit and Thompson 1999; Hijmans et al. 2007; Brittingham et al. 2018; Castro et al. 2019).”
• The frequency of polyploid speciation in vascular plants (2009, background): “Earlier workers have treated the angiosperm result cautiously (8, 17, 20, 21), arguing that genera with high species richness and polyploid incidence may simply be older than genera with comparatively fewer species and lower polyploid incidence.”
• Ploidy level and origin of the European invasive weed Senecio inaequidens (Asteraceae) (2003, background): “However, even though higher proportions of polyploids are generally found at higher altitude or latitude than related diploids ( Petit and Thompson 1999 ), there is still debate about the relationship between ecological tolerance and chromosomical valence and no general conclusion could be drawn reg”
• The evolutionary consequences of polyploidy. (2007, result): “A similar pattern was found in the flora of the Pyrenees (Petit and Thompson, 1999).”
• Polyploidy and Diversification: A Phylogenetic Investigation in Rosaceae (2006, methodology): “By plotting species richness against the proportion of polyploid species in a genus, a positive relationship has been observed for herbaceous dicots (Otto and Whitton 2000) and 50 angiosperm genera of the Pyrenees (Petit and Thompson 1999).”
• Influence of phylogeny and ploidy on species ranges of North American angiosperms (2009, background): “In contrast, broader taxonomic surveys have found no evidence for this pattern (Stebbins & Dawe 1987; Petit & Thompson 1999).”
