Harnessing genetic variation for grain quality from diverse wheat landraces
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Grain protein content is usually measured on bulk samples, hiding variation between individual grains. We used hyperspectral imaging to predict protein in c. 15 000 single grains from over 500 Watkins wheat landraces grown in two environments, resolving both mean protein content and grain‐to‐grain uniformity.

Diversification and coexistence amid widespread and persistent gene flow in Andean trees
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Andean Prunus species diversify into and occupy distinct elevation zones, remaining morphologically distinct. Yet, ancient introgression and recent admixture cross both phylogenetic and ecological distances. This suggests these species function as a long‐lived syngameon rather than fully isolated lineages, which may help explain how tree diversity ...

From topology to biological meaning: why plant family classification matters beyond systematics
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Conceptual framework for family‐level classification. Summary Plant family names are routinely used to structure comparative analyses, trait databases, floras, conservation assessments, and teaching. Yet, these names are not neutral labels: changing family boundaries changes the units across which biological patterns are compared, summarized, and ...

Accuracy of IntroUNET on the simple introgression scenario.
(A) Confusion matrix, precision-recall curve, and ROC curve showing IntroUNET’s accuracy when trained to detect introgression in the direction of population 1 to population 2 and tested on data with introgression in this same direction.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Polyploidisation, creating redundant or diverged copies of the genome, is a major driving force in plant evolution, diversification and environmental adaptation, including for the kiwifruit genus (Actinidia Lindl.). We present a high‐contiguity, haplotype‐resolved genome assembly of the hexaploid Actinidia valvata rootstock cultivar ...
