Exceptional subgenome stability and functional divergence in the allotetraploid Ethiopian cereal teff

Exceptional subgenome stability and functional divergence in the allotetraploid Ethiopian cereal teff

Teff is an indigenous cereal critical to food security in the Horn of Africa. Here, the authors report an improved genome assembly and observe the surprisingly low levels of large-scale structural rearrangement, homoeologous exchanges, or bias gene loss after the formation of this tetraploid species...
