Population Genetic Structure and Species Delimitation of a Widespread, Neotropical Dwarf Gecko [PDF]

, 2019
Amazonia harbors the greatest biological diversity on Earth. One trend that spans Amazonian taxa is that most taxonomic groups either exhibit broad geographic ranges or small restricted ranges.

The scaling of seed‐dispersal specialization in interaction networks across levels of organization

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Natural ecosystems are characterized by a specialization pattern where few species are common while many others are rare. In ecological networks involving biotic interactions, specialization operates as a continuum at individual, species, and community levels. Theory predicts that ecological and evolutionary factors can primarily explain specialization.

Infestation of Olive Fruit Fly, Bactrocera oleae, in California and Taxonomy of its Host Trees [PDF]

, 2005
The results of the trapping survey were analyzed to determine the taxonomy of various tree species infested by the olive fruit fly (Bactrocera oleae) in California. Since its first appearance in California in 1998, the olive fruit fly has spread from Los

GWAS identifies regulators of seed and leaf morphology in common bean, revealing OFP5 as a major seed size determinant

The Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 3, May 2026.
Significance Statement Seed and leaf phenomic traits, including morphology and spectral features, play key roles in consumer preference and plant performance. Here, we conducted a genome‐wide association study of 71 phenomic traits, identifying 73 high‐confidence quantitative trait locus and 114 candidate genes.

Population genetics and phylogenomic insights into the origin of economically important black pepper (Piper nigrum)

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Premise We conducted population genetic and phylogenomic analyses of several cultivated Piper nigrum varieties and closely related species. We sought to establish (1) the genetic constitution of P. nigrum and its putative status as an allotetraploid hybrid of Indian origin, and (2) its relationships to other species of Piper in South and ...

A new phylogeny and phylogenetic classification for Solanaceae

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Solanaceae are a globally distributed family of considerable economic importance. Recent phylogenetic work on various clades in the family has resulted in a plethora of names at various taxonomic levels. This results in a confusing set of names applied to clades at different ranks, and to the use of informal names that are often not accepted ...
