Arabidopsis suecica is a natural allotetraploid species formed via hybridization of Arabidopsis thaliana and Arabidopsis arenosa. Comparative analysis of genome and transcriptome data shows no evidence for major genomic changes linked to structural and functional alterations in A. suecica but reveals changes to the meiotic machinery and cyto-nuclear processes.
