📚noun

allotetraploidy

🗣️

DEFINITION

hybrid state where an organism possesses four complete sets of chromosomes derived from two distinct species

EXAMPLE SENTENCES

Plant geneticists studied allotetraploidy in wild wheat species to understand natural crop evolution and grain resilience. The occurrence of allotetraploidy often leads to superior physical characteristics and enhanced fertility in newly formed hybrid plants. Botany researchers induced artificial allotetraploidy in agricultural crop experiments to develop disease resistant plant strains. Evolutionary biologists analyze allotetraploidy as a key mechanism driving the rapid speciation of flowering plants globally. Detailed chromosome mapping revealed that natural allotetraploidy contributed significantly to modern cotton species development.
