Abstract excerpt
Both natural and newly synthesized allopolyploids display nonadditive gene expression changes through genetic and epigenetic mechanisms. The nonadditively expressed genes include many microRNA (miRNA) targets, suggesting a role for miRNAs and their targets in morphological variation in the allopolyploids and their progenitors. We produced dominant-negative transgenic allotetraploid plants in Arabidopsis using RNA...
