New insights into polyploid evolution and dynamic nature of Ludwigia section Isnardia (Onagraceae)
Botanical Studies, 2023 Background While polyploids are common in plants, the evolutionary history and natural dynamics of most polyploid groups are still unclear. Owing to plentiful earlier systematic studies, Ludwigia sect.

Prioritizing nationally endemic species for conservation
Conservation Science and Practice, 2022 Abstract Over 90% of recent human‐caused extinctions are wild species known from only one nation. These nationally endemic species represent one of the greatest global conservation responsibilities for any country. To meet this responsibility, we must first identify nationally endemic species.

High unexpected genetic diversity of a narrow endemic terrestrial mollusc [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 The Iberian Peninsula has an extensive record of species displaying strong genetic structure as a result of their survival in isolated pockets throughout the Pleistocene ice ages. We used mitochondrial and nuclear sequence data to analyze phylogeographic

Endemic plant species are more palatable to introduced herbivores than non-endemics [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2019 Islands harbour a spectacular diversity and unique species composition. This uniqueness is mainly a result of endemic species that have evolved in situ in the absence of mammal herbivores. However, island endemism is under severe threat by introduced herbivores.

Weak gene–gene interaction facilitates the evolution of gene expression plasticity
BMC Biology, 2023 Background Individual organisms may exhibit phenotypic plasticity when they acclimate to different conditions. Such plastic responses may facilitate or constrain the adaptation of their descendant populations to new environments, complicating their ...
