Seedling salt tolerance in tomato [PDF]
, 2011 Soils with higher concentrations of salt are becoming more and more a constraint for many crops to obtain high yields. Wild tomato species, adapted to adverse environments, are a potential reservoir for genes underlying quantitative trait loci (QTL ...

Historical introgression among the American live oaks and the comparative nature of tests for introgression [PDF]
Evolution, 2015 Introgressive hybridization challenges the concepts we use to define species and infer phylogenetic relationships. Methods for inferring historical introgression from the genomes of extant species, such as ABBA-BABA tests, are widely used, however, their results can be easily misinterpreted.

Phylogenomic insights into the origin of the Norton grape
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Challenges in viticulture such as disease resistance have renewed interest in underutilized cultivars. The Norton grape, one of the earliest popular North American grape cultivars, holds the potential to produce exceptional wine while being resistant to pests and disease. Yet, the ancestry of the Norton grape is controversial.

International genetic, cytogenetic and germplasm resources for cotton genomics and genetic improvement [PDF]
, 2008 A general understanding of the nature, uses and need of cotton germplasm collections is important to maintaining support for them and their utilization. Such support is vital to addressing the future challenges and needs of cotton, which will be many and

Complex genome evolution in Anopheles coluzzii associated with increased insecticide usage in Mali. [PDF]
, 2015 In certain cases, a species may have access to important genetic variation present in a related species via adaptive introgression. These novel alleles may interact with their new genetic background, resulting in unexpected phenotypes.

The Strength of Selection Against Neanderthal Introgression [PDF]
PLOS Genetics, 2015 AbstractHybridization between humans and Neanderthals has resulted in a low level of Neanderthal ancestry scattered across the genomes of many modern-day humans. After hybridization, on average, selection appears to have removed Neanderthal alleles from the human population.

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Viticulture is facing increasing challenges due to climate change. The focus on fast growth and sweet berries has come at the expense of stress resilience. Grafting onto Phylloxera‐resistant rootstocks from American species has been the most successful form of ecological pest management.
