Résumé
Polyploidy played an important role in the evolution of the three most important crops: wheat, maize and rice, each of them providing a unique model for studying allopolyploidy, segmental alloploidy or paleopolyploidy. However, its genetic and evolutionary role is still vague. The undelying mechanisms and consequences of polyploidy remain fundamental objectives in the study of eukaryotes. Maize is one of the underutilized crops at the polyploid level. This species has no stable natural polyploids, the existing ones being artificially obtained. From the experimental polyploid series of maize, only the tetraploid forms (4n = 40) are of interest. They are characterized by some valuable morphological, physiological and biochemical features, superior to the diploid forms from which they originated, but also by some drawbacks such as: reduced fertility, slower development, longer vegetation period, low productivity and adaptedness. Due to these barriers to using tetraploids in field production, maize tetraploids primarily found utility in scientific studies regarding genetic variability, inbreeding, heterosis and gene dosage effect. Since the first mention of a triploid maize plant to present, many scientists and schools, devoted their efforts to capitalize on the use of polyploidy in maize. Despite its common disadvantages as a crop, significant progress in developing tetraploid maize with good agronomic performance was achieved leading to registered tetraploid maize varieties. In this review we summarize and discuss the different aspects of polyploidy in maize, such as evolutionary context, methods of induction, morphology, fertility issue, inheritance patterns, gene expression and potential use.
