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 ...

Selective sorting of ancestral introgression in maize and teosinte along an elevational cline.
PLoS Genetics, 2021 While often deleterious, hybridization can also be a key source of genetic variation and pre-adapted haplotypes, enabling rapid evolution and niche expansion.

Adaptive and maladaptive introgression in grapevine domestication
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2023 Significance Our study focused on the history of introgression between domesticated grapes and their European wild relative. We find evidence for a single domestication of grapevine with introgression from the wild relative to wine, but not to table ...

Nature Communications, 2022 Northern Hemisphere forests changed drastically in the early Eocene with the diversification of the oak family (Fagaceae). Cooling climates over the next 20 million years fostered the spread of temperate biomes that became increasingly dominated by oaks ...

Prevalence and Adaptive Impact of Introgression.
Annual Review of Genetics, 2021 Alleles that introgressed between species can influence the evolutionary and ecological fate of species exposed to novel environments. Hybrid offspring of different species are often unfit, and yet it has long been argued that introgression can be a ...

Phylogenomic approaches to detecting and characterizing introgression
Genetics, 2021 Phylogenomics has revealed the remarkable frequency with which introgression occurs across the tree of life. These discoveries have been enabled by the rapid growth of methods designed to detect and characterize introgression from whole-genome sequencing

Recombination Variation Shapes Phylogeny and Introgression in Wild Diploid Strawberries
Molecular biology and evolution, 2023 Introgressive hybridization is widespread in wild plants and has important consequences. However, frequent hybridization between species makes the estimation of the species’ phylogeny challenging, and little is known about the genomic landscape of ...

The contribution of Neanderthal introgression to modern human traits.
Current Biology, 2022 Neanderthals, our closest extinct relatives, lived in western Eurasia from 400,000 years ago until they went extinct around 40,000 years ago. DNA retrieved from ancient specimens revealed that Neanderthals mated with modern human contemporaries.

Molecular biology and evolution, 2022 Hybridization and resulting introgression are important processes shaping the tree of life and appear to be far more common than previously thought.

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.
