      Polyploidy and hybridisation are important evolutionary forces shaping plant genomes and underlying the huge angiosperm diversity. Both can confer evolutionary advantages [44–46] attributed to the plasticity of plant genomes and to increased genetic variability, generating individuals capable of exploiting new niches [47].
