Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Background Plant responses to deficiencies of the micronutrient boron are diverse and go beyond the well‐characterized function of boron in cell wall crosslinking. To explain these phenotypic discrepancies, hypotheses about interactions of boron with various phytohormones have been proposed, particularly auxin.

Biology, 2023 As an important driving force, introgression plays an essential role in shaping the evolution of plant species. However, knowledge concerning how introgression affects plant evolution in agroecosystems with strong human influences is still limited.

Assessing biological factors affecting postspeciation introgression
Evolution Letters, 2020 An increasing number of phylogenomic studies have documented a clear “footprint” of postspeciation introgression among closely related species. Nonetheless, systematic genome‐wide studies of factors that determine the likelihood of introgression remain ...

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020 Introgression from wild relatives is a valuable source of novel allelic diversity for breeding. We investigated the genomic patterns of introgression from Aegilops tauschii, the diploid ancestor of the wheat D genome, into winter wheat (Triticum aestivum)

The dynamics of introgression across an avian radiation
Evolution Letters, 2021 Hybridization and resulting introgression can play both a destructive and a creative role in the evolution of diversity. Thus, characterizing when and where introgression is most likely to occur can help us understand the causes of diversification ...

The genomic impact of historical hybridization with massive mitochondrial DNA introgression
Genome Biology, 2018 Background The extent to which selection determines interspecific patterns of genetic exchange enlightens the role of adaptation in evolution and speciation.

Characterization of introgression from the teosinte Zea mays ssp. mexicana to Mexican highland maize [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Background The spread of maize cultivation to the highlands of central Mexico was accompanied by substantial introgression from the endemic wild teosinte Zea mays ssp.

Heliyon, 2021 Interspecies hybridization is driven by a complex interplay of factors where introgression plays an important role. In the present study, the transfer of genetic material, between two quite distant fish species from different genera, through spontaneous ...

Effects of asymmetric nuclear introgression, introgressive mitochondrial sweep, and purifying selection on phylogenetic reconstruction and divergence estimates in the Pacific clade of Locustella warblers. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 When isolated but reproductively compatible populations expand geographically and meet, simulations predict asymmetric introgression of neutral loci from a local to invading taxon. Genetic introgression may affect phylogenetic reconstruction by obscuring

Benefit of Introgression Depends on Level of Genetic Trait Variation in Cereal Breeding Programmes
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 We investigated the benefit from introgression of external lines into a cereal breeding programme and strategies that accelerated introgression of the favourable alleles while minimising linkage drag using stochastic computer simulation.
