Article Synopsis
  • - Allotetraploid white clover formed during the last glaciation through hybridization of two diploid progenitors from different environments: coastal and alpine.
  • - The study investigated how molecular changes from hybridization affected white clover's ability to thrive in new niches after glaciation, focusing on frost responses.
  • - Key findings included the discovery that the alpine progenitor's descendants produced more galactinol synthase and raffinose in response to cold, likely aiding their survival and expansion compared to the coastal progenitor.
