Hybrid ancestry of an island subspecies of Galápagos mockingbird explains discordant gene trees

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2013
Introgression of genes through hybridization has been proposed to be an important driver of speciation, but in animals this has been shown only in relatively few cases until recently. Additionally, introgressive hybridization among non-sister species leads to a change in the gene tree topology of the concerned loci and thus complicates phylogenetic ...

Resolving marine–freshwater transitions by diatoms through a fog of discordant gene trees

2022
ABSTRACTDespite the obstacles facing marine colonists, most lineages of aquatic organisms have colonized and diversified in freshwaters repeatedly. These transitions can trigger rapid morphological or physiological change and, on longer timescales, lead to increased rates of speciation and extinction.

Gene tree discordance and coalescent methods support ancient intergeneric hybridisation between Dasymaschalon and Friesodielsia (Annonaceae)

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2018
Although hybridisation between closely related species is common and known to be important in plant evolution, hybridisation at the generic level or above is comparatively rare. We address ancient intergeneric hybridisation in the early-divergent angiosperm family Annonaceae by phylogenetic reconstruction, divergence time estimation and coalescent ...

Gene tree discordance of wild and cultivated Asian rice deciphered by genome-wide sequence comparison

Gene, 2011
Although a large number of genes are expected to correctly solve a phylogenetic relationship, inconsistent gene tree topologies have been observed. This conflicting evidence in gene tree topologies, known as gene tree discordance, becomes increasingly important as advanced sequencing technologies produce an enormous amount of sequence information for ...

Species-level phylogeny of ‘Satan’s perches’ based on discordant gene trees (Teleostei: Cichlidae: Satanoperca Günther 1862)

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2012
Neotropical rivers are home to the largest assemblage of freshwater fishes, but little is known about the phylogeny of these fishes at the species level using multi-locus molecular markers. Here, we present a phylogeny for all known species of the genus Satanoperca, a widespread group of Neotropical cichlid fishes, based on analysis of six unlinked ...

Disentangling sources of gene tree discordance for Hordeum species via target-enriched sequencing assays

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution
Hordeum is an economically and evolutionarily important genus within the Triticeae tribe of the family Poaceae, and contains 33 widely distributed and diverse species which cytologically represent four subgenomes (H, Xa, Xu and I). These wild species (except Hordeum spontaneum, which is the primary gene pool of barley) are secondary or tertiary gene ...

Complex Models of Sequence Evolution Improve Fit, But Not Gene Tree Discordance, for Tetrapod Mitogenomes

Systematic Biology
Abstract Variation in gene tree estimates is widely observed in empirical phylogenomic data and is often assumed to be the result of biological processes. However, a recent study using tetrapod mitochondrial genomes to control for biological sources of variation due to their haploid, uniparentally inherited, and non-recombining nature ...

Rediscovery and phylogenomic placement of Feliciadamia stenocarpa (Feliciadamieae: Melastomataceae): assessing gene tree discordance

Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society
Abstract The phylogenetic placement of Feliciadamia stenocarpa, a rare and endemic species from Guinea within the family Melastomataceae, has remained uncertain due to limited molecular data and lack of recent collections. Following recent field expeditions, we obtained samples for phylogenomic analysis using both target capture and ...
