Polyploid plant genomes complexity and the challenges of sequencing.
Review in Planta, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
MAIN
conclusionWhole-genome duplication is an important evolutionary mechanism for many agriculturally important plants. We discuss selected polyploid genomic studies, limitations, and practical applications in plant breeding. Polyploids are highly represented among agriculturally important plant species. Understanding how plant genomes change in response to whole-genome duplication is important for streamlining the use of diploid germplasm in polyploid breeding programs to introduce new alleles, genes, or desirable traits. The complexity of polyploid genomes stemming from their diverse evolutionary histories poses challenges for assembling high-quality, haplotype-resolved genome sequences, a necessary step for optimizing plant breeding efforts. In this review, we examined genomic studies that yielded high-quality reference genomes through novel approaches in various polyploid crop species. Examples include using references of progenitor species in peanut and blueberry, tackling the mixed-ploidy levels of sugarcane and dealing with species complexes in wheat and alfalfa. We also highlighted the new and innovative approaches to polyploid genome sequencing used in these studies as well as others. These methods and tools can be especially useful in species where genomic studies are not advanced, to provide insights on adapting techniques in other polyploid species to create more refined genomic studies crop improvement.
