Autopolyploidy is widespread in higher plants and important for agricultural yield and quality. However, the effects of genome duplication on the chromatin organization and transcriptional regulation are largely unknown in plants. Using High-throughput Chromosome Conformation Capture (Hi-C), we showed that autotetraploid Arabidopsis presented more inter-chromosomal interactions and fewer short-range chromatin interactions compared with its diploid progenitor. In addition, genome duplication cont ...[more]
