    <p>Polyploidization is a widespread phenomenon, especially in flowering plants that have all undergone at least one event of whole genome duplication during their evolutionary history. Consequently, a large range of plants, including many of the world’s crops, combines more than two sets of chromosomes originating from the same (autopolyploids) or related species (allopolyploids). Depending on the polyploid formation pathway, different patterns of recombination will be promoted, conditioning the level of heterozygosity. A polyploid population harboring a high level of heterozygosity will produce more genetically diverse progenies. Some of these individuals may show a better adaptability to different ecological niches, increasing their chance for successful establishment through natural selection. Another condition for young polyploids to survive corresponds to the formation of well-balanced gametes, assuring a sufficient level of fertility. In this review, we discuss the consequences of polyploid formation pathways, meiotic behavior and recombination regulation on the speciation success and maintenance of polyploid species.</p

The A<sub>n</sub>A<sub>n</sub> plant corresponds to the diploid component of <i>B</i>. <i>napus</i> cv. ‘Darmor’ extracted from five generations of backcrosses by Pelé <i>et al</i>.

The progenies were generated from female (♀) or male (♂) F<sub>1</sub> hybrids using the <i>B</i>. <i>napus</i> cv. ‘Darmor’ for (<b>a</b>) and ‘Yudal’ for (<b>b</b>).

    <p>In the first outer circle are represented the 10 A chromosomes of the <i>B</i>. <i>rapa</i> cv. ‘Chiifu-401’ genome sequence version 1.5 [<a href="http://www.plosgenetics.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pgen.1006794#pgen.1006794.ref057" target="_blank">57</a>]. Their sizes are indicated by the values in megabase pairs above each chromosome, and a ruler drawn underneath each chromosome, with larger and smaller tick marks every 10 and 2 Mbp, respectively. In the second outer circle, is detailed the architecture of each A chromosome, including the genes and transposable elements (TEs) densities from the version 1.5 of the <i>B</i>. <i>rapa</i> cv. ‘Chiifu-401’ genome sequence [<a href="http://www.plosgenetics.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pgen.1006794#pgen.1006794.ref057" target="_blank">57</a>]. The active centromeres are delimited in black using the positions established by Mason <i>et al</i>. [<a href="http://www.plosgenetics.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pgen.1006794#pgen.1006794.ref081" target="_blank">81</a>]. In the third outer circle, are indicated the positions of the 204 SNP markers used for the genotyping of the progenies of each AA and AAC F<sub>1</sub> hybrid. In the three inner circles, are represented the pair-wise comparisons for the recombination landscapes (in cM per Mb) of progenies deriving from the AA and AAC F<sub>1</sub> hybrids. Toward the Circos diagram center, are compared (i) the A<sub>r</sub>A<sub>r’</sub> (purple lines) and A<sub>r</sub>A<sub>r’</sub>C<sub>o</sub> (light purple lines) female hybrids, (ii) the A<sub>n</sub>A<sub>r’</sub> (red lines) and A<sub>n</sub>A<sub>r’</sub>C<sub>n</sub> (pink lines) female hybrids, and (iii) the A<sub>n</sub>A<sub>r’</sub> (blue lines) and A<sub>n</sub>A<sub>r’</sub>C<sub>n</sub> (light blue lines) male hybrids. For each interval between adjacent SNP markers, the heterogeneity of CO rates was assessed using Chi-squared tests and significant differences at a threshold of 5% were indicated for each pair-wise comparison between AA and AAC F<sub>1</sub> hybrids in grey.</p

    <p>Comparison of the distribution of genetic distances between successive COs from populations deriving of (<b>a</b>) females A<sub>r</sub>A<sub>r’</sub> (in purple) <i>vs</i> A<sub>r</sub>A<sub>r’</sub>C<sub>o</sub> (in light purple), (<b>b</b>) females A<sub>n</sub>A<sub>r’</sub> (in red) <i>vs</i> A<sub>n</sub>A<sub>r’</sub>C<sub>n</sub> (in pink) and (<b>c</b>) males A<sub>n</sub>A<sub>r’</sub> (in blue) <i>vs</i> A<sub>n</sub>A<sub>r’</sub>C<sub>n</sub> (in light blue). Data are pooled over the 10 A chromosomes. X-axis: genetic distance between successive COs. Solid lines correspond to experimental data. Dashed lines indicate the corresponding distributions in the "no-interference" situation, obtained by re-shuffling CO positions of experimental data (see <a href="http://www.plosgenetics.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pgen.1006794#sec013" target="_blank">Methods</a>). For each population, the Küllback-Leibler divergence (KL Div.) from the experimental to the "no-interference" distribution provides a quantitative measurement of interference strength. p-value: one-sided <i>p</i>-value of the H<sub>0</sub> hypothesis that the diploids and allotriploids have the same KL Div. index (and thus interference strength). Sufficiently small values indicate significantly higher interference in diploids than in allotriploids (see details in <a href="http://www.plosgenetics.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pgen.1006794#sec013" target="_blank">Methods</a>).</p
