Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Wildfire frequency and intensity are increasing globally, impacting terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Deposition of burned materials into aquatic environments can affect biotic communities and nutrient cycling. We investigated how post‐fire terrestrial deposition shapes microbial and zooplankton community composition and function across time

Genome Architecture and Speciation in Plants and Animals
Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT There have been numerous treatments of specific topics in speciation, but surprisingly few papers have compared patterns and processes of speciation across different organismal groups. In this review, we partially address this gap by asking how variation in genome architecture impacts speciation across the plant and animal kingdoms.

How the diversity in digestion in carnivorous plants may have evolved
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Carnivorous plants secrete digestive enzymes for prey degradation. Although carnivorous plants have a polyphyletic origin and evolved several times independently, they surprisingly co‐opted similar digestive enzymes during convergent evolution.

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Many plants reproduce asexually by generating clonal progeny from vegetative tissues, a process known as vegetative reproduction. This reproduction mode contrasts with sexual reproduction, which enhances genetic diversity. The bryophyte Marchantia polymorpha L.

Beyond conservation: the landscape of chloroplast genome rearrangements in angiosperms
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Chloroplast genomes (plastomes) have long been considered structurally conserved, but recent sequencing efforts have uncovered pervasive rearrangements that challenge this assumption. This review catalogues the main types of plastome modifications: large and small inversions; insertions and deletions (indels); gene and intron losses; horizontal

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Conventional genetic engineering in green microalgae employs error‐prone nonhomologous end joining to integrate recombinant DNA at double‐strand breaks generated at random positions across the nuclear genome. This typically results in variable transcription strength and requires a labor‐intensive screening procedure to identify transformants ...
