Background
Although it is agreed that a major polyploidy event, gamma, occurred within the eudicots, the phylogenetic placement of the event remains unclear.
Results
To determine when this polyploidization ...
A physical map for the Amborella trichopoda genome sheds light on the evolution of angiosperm genome structure
