Does variation occur in plants?

Much more morphological variation occurs in plants. Genetic variation is the big variation in plants because of polyploidy; this doubling, tripling and halving of chromosome number in the mating of two plants not only leads to great variation in genetic material, but also leads to great speciation in plants.
