Genome fractionation (also known as diploidization) frequently occurs following paleopolyploidization events. Biased fractionation between subgenomes has been found in some paleo-allopolyploids, while this phenomenon is absent in paleo-autopolyploids. Pear (<i>Pyrus bretschneideri</i> Rehd.) experienced a recent whole-genome duplication (WGD, ~30 million years ago); however, the evolutionary fate of the two subgenomes derived from this WGD event is not clear. In this study, we identified the two ...[more]
