And if you’re wondering how octoploid strawberries rank among polyploid plants, they’re far behind the current known record ...

Polyploid genomes, formed through repeated whole-genome duplication and hybridization, underpin the evolution of many important crops, yet their internal structure often remains unresolved when ...

Cultivated strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) is one of our youngest domesticates, originating from interspecific hybrids in the early eighteenth century between geographically isolated allo-octoploid ...

Pioneering research has unlocked new understanding of the genetic intricacies within the octoploid strawberry, focusing on the interplay and divergence among its four ancestral subgenomes. This work ...

The portion of the eukaryotic world inhabited by plants exhibits a genetic complexity not shared by members of the animal world (see, for example, "Rose Genome Reveals Its Exquisite Complexities").

The cultivated garden strawberry emerged as a hybrid between two wild octoploid species in the gardens of Versailles approximately 250 years ago. Analysis of its assembled genome provides new insights ...
