Angiosperm polyploids and their road to evolutionary success (2010, background): “Although it has frequently been suggested that WGDs might be correlated with species-richness and can result in a radiation of species, some studies have failed to find an increase in species-richness or speciation associated with polyploidy.(40,46) Meyers and Levin(49) suggested that the abundance ”
Mating Consequences of Polyploid Evolution in Flowering Plants: Current Trends and Insights from Synthetic Polyploids (2008, background): “The evolutionary transition from diploidy to polyploidy by genome duplication is widespread among flowering plants and is associated with significant phenotypic effects (Levin 1983; Soltis and Soltis 1999; Otto and Whitton 2000; Levin 2002; Vamosi and Dickinson 2006).”
The Incidence of Polyploidy in Natural Plant Populations: Major Patterns and Evolutionary Processes (2013, background): “1 Asexual Reproduction Wettstein (1927) hypothesized that polyploidy was only possible in plants with apomixis or vegetative reproduction.”
The evolutionary consequences of polyploidy. (2007, background): “Cell 131, November 2, 2007 ©2007 Elsevier Inc. 459 The study by Vamosi and Dickinson (2006) is a step in the right direction, suggesting polyploidy is simply a common mutation, which occasionally spawns ecologically distinct lineages that are able to persist.”
