PLoS Genetics, 2021 It is now understood that introgression can serve as powerful evolutionary force, providing genetic variation that can shape the course of trait evolution.

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.

Ghost introgression facilitates genomic divergence of a sympatric cryptic lineage in Cycas revoluta
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 A cryptic lineage is a genetically diverged but morphologically unrecognized variant of a known species. Clarifying cryptic lineage evolution is essential for quantifying species diversity. In sympatric cryptic lineage divergence compared with allopatric

Large-scale introgression shapes the evolution of the mating-type chromosomes of the filamentous ascomycete Neurospora tetrasperma. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2012 The significance of introgression as an evolutionary force shaping natural populations is well established, especially in animal and plant systems. However, the abundance and size of introgression tracts, and to what degree interspecific gene flow is the

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.

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 ...

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 ...

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.
