polyploidy
However polyploidy is found in some organisms and is especially common in plants.
From the en.wikipedia.org
For example many seedless fruit varieties are seedless as a result of polyploidy.

Polyploidy i thought was instantaneous speciation, because it could happen rapidly.
From the newscientist.com
This is a common process in plants, especially those that exhibit polyploidy.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Polyploidy has been implicated as an important mechanism in plant speciation.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Polyploidy is common, with up to 343n having been recorded in some species.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Many recent studies have examined the effects of polyploidy on meiosis.
From the sciencedaily.com
Polyploidy refers to a numerical change in a whole set of chromosomes.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Polyploidy leads to genome doubling, thus generating functional redundancy in most genes.

  • The condition of being polyploid
  • (polyploid) of a cell or organism having more than twice the haploid number of chromosomes; "a polyploid cell"; "a polyploid species"
  • Polyploidy occurs in cells and organisms when there are more than two paired (homologous) sets of chromosomes.
  • (Polyploid) A cell, tissue, individual, population, or whole species having more than twice the basic number oex of chromosomes of the ancestral species. Polyploidy may lead to increased growth rates (Populus) or severe dwarfing (Pinus). ...
  • (Polyploid) an organism with more than two genomes.
  • Having three or more of each type of chromosome in the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell at interphase.
  • Refers to cells the nuclei of which have three or more times the number of chromosomes found in haploid cells. This condition frequently occurs in plants and may result from chromosome duplication without division of the cytoplasm or from the union of two diploid gametes. ...
  • This involves the treatment of fertilised eggs, very early in development, which causes the genetic make up of the fish to be altered. ...
  • Refers to a chromosome number that is more than double the haploid number (i.e. n=23, 2n=46 in humans, but polyploid organisms cells are 3n, 4n, etc.).
