Benefit of Introgression Depends on Level of Genetic Trait Variation in Cereal Breeding Programmes

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

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]

open access: yesPLoS 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

Genomic introgression through interspecific hybridization counteracts genetic bottleneck during soybean domestication

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2019
Background Evidence of introgression, the transfer of genetic material, between crops and their wild relatives through spontaneous hybridization and subsequent backcrossing has been documented; however, the evolutionary patterns and consequences of ...

Detecting adaptive introgression in human evolution using convolutional neural networks

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Studies in a variety of species have shown evidence for positively selected variants introduced into a population via introgression from another, distantly related population—a process known as adaptive introgression.

Extensive introgression among strongylocentrotid sea urchins revealed by phylogenomics

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Gametic isolation is thought to play an important role in the evolution of reproductive isolation in broadcast‐spawning marine invertebrates. However, it is unclear whether gametic isolation commonly evolves early in the speciation process or only ...

Extensive microsatellite variation in rice induced by introgression from wild rice (Zizania latifolia Griseb.).

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BackgroundIt is widely accepted that interspecific hybridization may induce genomic instability in the resultant hybrids. However, few studies have been performed on the genomic analysis of homoploid hybrids and introgression lines.

Selective sorting of ancestral introgression in maize and teosinte along an elevational cline.

open access: yesPLoS 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.

Correlation and the Structure of Introgressive Populations [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 1966
Anderson (1949) has reviewed in detail the currently available techniques for the study of introgression. He has indicated (Anderson 1954, 1956, 1957) that the use of metroglyphs (the "pictures" used in pictorial scatter diagrams) is the most efficient means of analyzing suspected examples of introgression.

NLSS3 Impairs SHM1 Autophagic Degradation to Regulate Leaf Morphology and Salt Tolerance in Rice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In rice, NLSS3 binds and shields SHM1 from autophagic degradation to maintain serine homeostasis. The A132P mutation in nlss3 disrupts this, triggering SHM1 loss, metabolic dysfunction, K+ imbalance, and impaired ROS scavenging, which collectively drive narrow leaves and salt sensitivity.

Natural Variation of COLD and CATECHINS REGULATOR 1 Coordinately Fine‐Tunes Cold Tolerance and Tea Quality in Tea Plants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Multi‐trait genome‐wide association mapping identifies a central hub regulator, COLD AND CATECHINS REGULATOR 1 (CCR1), and its excellent natural allele variation, coordinately enhancing cold tolerance and promoting catechins biosyntheis. CsCCR1 interacts with CsCBF1/3 and is transcriptionally activated by CsLUX and CsKUA1 to promote catechins ...
