Wild polyploid strawberries hold clues to how plants evolve and adapt to harsh environments. In this study, scientists sequenced the genomes of two tetraploid species—Fragaria corymbosa and Fragaria ...
A recent study has uncovered new genetic insights into how two wild strawberries—Fragaria corymbosa and Fragaria moupinensis—have evolved to thrive in high-altitude environments. Researchers ...

Scientists have developed a theoretical model that uncovers the dual role of polyploidy -- organisms carrying extra genome copies -- in evolution. Their findings reveal that polyploidy can stabilize ...
Reconstructing the origin of cultivated plants often represents a real puzzle for scientists. Indeed, many species, like wheat or precisely the strawberry, possess genomes resulting from the fusion of ...
