Homoeologs: What Are They and How Do We Infer Them? (2016, background): “Additionally, we can study the functional divergence of homoeologs on polyploidization, particularly in terms of expression (reviewed in [2,8,10–13]), epigenetic patterns (reviewed in [8,12]), alternative splicing [14], and diploidization (reviewed in [8]).”
The scaling of genome size and cell size limits maximum rates of photosynthesis with implications for ecological strategies (2019, background): “Describing the types of polyploids and how they are has been thoroughly reviewed elsewhere (e.g. Stebbins 1947; Soltis et al. 2015), and we focus our discussion here on how and why ploidy–via its relationship with genome size– may or may not correlate with species distributions and habitat breadth.”
The “Polyploid Hop”: Shifting Challenges and Opportunities Over the Evolutionary Lifespan of Genome Duplications (2018, background): “This genome downsizing ultimately leads to the diploidization of descendants (Soltis et al., 2015).”
