Polyploidization as a retraction force in plant genome evolution: sequence rearrangements in triticale.

<h4>Background</h4>Polyploidization is a major evolutionary process in plants where hybridization and chromosome doubling induce enormous genomic stress and can generate genetic and epigenetic modifications. However, proper evaluation of DNA sequence restructuring events and the precise...
