The Cape flora has anomalously low proportions of polyploids compared with global levels. This pattern is consistently observed across nearly half the clades and across global latitudinal gradients. This pattern shows that the diversity of the Cape fl ora is the outcome of primarily diploid radiations and supports the hypothesis that WGD may be rare in stable environments.
