Polyploidy has caused many rapid speciation events because offspring of , for example , tetraploid x diploid matings often result in triploid sterile progeny .


The reasoning behind this is that if the parents of the hybrid offspring each have naturally selected traits for their own certain environments , the hybrid offspring will bear traits from both , therefore would not fit either ecological niche as well as either parent .

However , not all polyploids are reproductively isolated from their parental plants , and gene flow may still occur for example through triploid hybrid x diploid matings that produce tetraploids , or matings between meiotically unreduced gametes from diploids and gametes from tetraploids ( see also hybrid speciation ) .
