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 ...

Hybrid speciation driven by multilocus introgression of ecological traits

open access: yesNature
Hybridization allows adaptations to be shared among lineages and may trigger the evolution of new species1,2. However, convincing examples of homoploid hybrid speciation remain rare because it is challenging to demonstrate that hybridization was crucial ...

Current Perspectives on Introgression Breeding in Food Legumes

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Food legumes are important for defeating malnutrition and sustaining agri-food systems globally. Breeding efforts in legume crops have been largely confined to the exploitation of genetic variation available within the primary genepool, resulting in ...

The effects of introgression across thousands of quantitative traits revealed by gene expression in wild tomatoes

open access: yesPLoS 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.

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.

Detection of Ghost Introgression Requires Exploiting Topological and Branch Length Information

open access: yesSystematic Biology
In recent years, the study of hybridization and introgression has made significant progress, with ghost introgression—the transfer of genetic material from extinct or unsampled lineages to extant species—emerging as a key area for research.

Whole-genome resequencing reveals world-wide ancestry and adaptive introgression events of domesticated cattle in East Asia

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Cattle domestication and the complex histories of East Asian cattle breeds warrant further investigation. Through analysing the genomes of 49 modern breeds and eight East Asian ancient samples, worldwide cattle are consistently classified into five ...

Primate phylogenomics uncovers multiple rapid radiations and ancient interspecific introgression

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
Our understanding of the evolutionary history of primates is undergoing continual revision due to ongoing genome sequencing efforts. Bolstered by growing fossil evidence, these data have led to increased acceptance of once controversial hypotheses ...

Asymmetric introgression reveals the genetic architecture of a plumage trait

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Genome-wide variation in introgression rates across hybrid zones offers a powerful opportunity for studying population differentiation. One poorly understood pattern of introgression is the geographic displacement of a trait implicated in lineage ...
