How Whole Genome Duplication Saved Plants from Extinction
Introduction The prehistoric world was a place of immense natural beauty and ferocious creatures. However, the reign of the dinosaurs came to a catastrophic end some 66 million years ago, as a massive asteroid collided with the Earth, causing a devastating mass extinction. Amidst the chaos, plants faced a daunting challenge – 60% of all plant species went extinct. Yet, amidst the darkness and dust, some plant ancestors managed to survive, and their secret to survival lies in a fascinating evolutionary phenomenon called Whole Genome Duplication (WGD). This accidental doubling of their DNA bestowed upon them the genetic flexibility and adaptability needed to thrive in extreme environmental conditions. Today, angiosperms, or flowering plants, owe much of their evolutionary success to this ancient event. In this blog, we will embark on a journey to explore the remarkable world of WGD and its pivotal role in shaping the course of plant evolution.
