Abstract excerpt
Naturally occurring autopolyploid species, such as the autotetraploid potato Solanum tuberosum, face a variety of challenges during meiosis. These include proper pairing, recombination and correct segregation of multiple homologous chromosomes, which can form complex multivalent configurations at metaphase I, and in turn alter allelic segregation ratios through double reduction. Here, we present a reference map...
