Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Hybridization events are crucial in the evolution of plants. Experimental hybridization between extant lineages can help us understand the evolutionary consequences of merging different species. Brassica allohexaploids (2n = AABBCC) offer a unique opportunity to test the effects of hybridization between allopolyploids from different species origins, and specifically whether these new hybrids...
