Deep reticulation: the long legacy of hybridization in vascular plant evolution
The Plant Journal, Volume 114, Issue 4, Page 743-766, May 2023., 2023 SUMMARY Hybridization has long been recognized as a fundamental evolutionary process in plants but, until recently, our understanding of its phylogenetic distribution and biological significance across deep evolutionary scales has been largely obscure. Over the past decade, genomic and phylogenomic datasets have revealed, perhaps not surprisingly, that

The Angiosperm Terrestrial Revolution and the origins of modern biodiversity
New Phytologist, Volume 233, Issue 5, Page 2017-2035, March 2022., 2022 Summary Biodiversity today has the unusual property that 85% of plant and animal species live on land rather than in the sea, and half of these live in tropical rainforests. An explosive boost to terrestrial diversity occurred from c. 100–50 million years ago, the Late Cretaceous and early Palaeogene. During this interval, the Earth‐life system on land
