Wheat paleohistory created asymmetrical genomic evolution
2017
Pont, Caroline | Salse, Jérôme
Following the triplication reported in Brassiceae ∼10million years ago, and at the basis of rosids ∼100million years ago, bias in organization and regulation, known as subgenome dominance, has been reported between the three post-polyploidy compartments referenced to as less fractionated (LF), medium fractionated (MF1) and more fractionated (MF2), that have been proposed to derive from an hexaploidization event involving ancestors of 7-14-21 chromosomes. Modern bread wheat experienced similar paleohistory during the last half million year of evolution opening a new hypothesis where the wheat genome is at the earliest stages on the road of diploidization through subgenome dominance driving asymmetry in gene content, gene expression abundance, transposable element content as dynamics and epigenetic control between the A, B and D subgenomes.
