Changes in the plant population can effect changes in the animal population. However, since this is not my area of expertise, I searched Google under the key words "polyploidy finch" to get these possible sources:

In the future, you can find the information you desire more quickly, if you use appropriate key words to do your own search. Also see http://hanlib.sou.edu/searchtools/.
I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.
Hi. i know I already posted this but I don't understand how polyploidy contributes to evolution in finches of the galapagos islands as polyploidy most often occurs in plants.
