Abstract Oxalis oulophora, a diploid species closely related to the octoploid Andean tuber crop oca (Oxalis tuberosa), was selected for whole‐genome sequencing to aid in understanding the origins of polyploidy and domestication in oca and its relatives (crop wild relatives).

Extrapolating demography with climate, proximity and phylogeny: approach with caution [PDF]
Plant population responses are key to understanding the effects of threats such as climate change and invasions. However, we lack demographic data for most species, and the data we have are often geographically aggregated.

PREMISE Large genomic data sets offer the promise of resolving historically recalcitrant species relationships. However, different methodologies can yield conflicting results, especially when clades have experienced ancient, rapid diversification.

Transcriptomic prey‐capture responses in convergently evolved carnivorous pitcher plants
Summary The Australian pitcher plant Cephalotus and the Asian pitcher plant Nepenthes exhibit striking morphological and functional similarities, serving as compelling examples of convergent evolution. Although trapping pitchers in both lineages represent some of the most elaborate leaf structures in angiosperms, it remains unknown whether their ...

Chloroplast Genome Evolution in Actinidiaceae: clpP Loss, Heterogenous Divergence and Phylogenomic Practice. [PDF]
Actinidiaceae is a well-known economically important plant family in asterids. To elucidate the chloroplast (cp) genome evolution within this family, here we present complete genomes of three species from two sister genera (Clematoclethra and Actinidia ...

Understanding the winter diets of endangered ungulates is critical for developing effective conservation strategies in temperate ecosystems, where seasonal fluctuations significantly affect food availability. The long‐tailed goral Naemorhedus caudatus, an herbivorous ungulate listed as a category I ‘Endangered species' (EN) under the Korean Wildlife ...

ABSTRACT Developments in the environmental DNA (eDNA) field have revolutionised our ability to map biodiversity by providing cost‐effective and non‐invasive means to survey organisms across the tree of life. In the terrestrial realm, a variety of eDNA sources have been employed, but we lack easily accessible and cosmopolitan sources of terrestrial eDNA.
