Polyploidization-driven transcriptomic dynamics in Medicago sativa neotetraploids: mRNA, smRNA and allele-specific gene expression by D. F. Santoro, G. Marconi, S. Capomaccio, M. Bocchini, A. W. Anderson, A. Finotti, M. Confalonieri, E. Albertini, D. Rosellini

“…A large majority of the genes whose expression level changed due to WGD presented increased expression, indicating that the 4x state requires the upregulation of approximately 2.66% of the protein-coding genes. Overall, we estimated that 3.63% of the protein-coding genes were transcriptionally affected by WGD and may contribute to the phenotypic novelty of the neotetraploid plants. …”
