The Evolutionary Dynamics of Genetic Mutational Load Throughout Tomato Domestication History

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the impact of domestication on deleterious mutations has fascinated evolutionary biologists and breeders alike. A ‘cost of domestication’ has been reported for some organisms through accumulation of gene disruptions or radical amino acid changes.

Gene Expression Divergence Between Locally Adapted Inland Annual and Coastal Perennial Ecotypes of Mimulus guttatus Across Developmental Stages

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The action of natural selection across heterogeneous natural landscapes drives local adaptation and the formation of plant ecotypes, the precursors to new species. Plant ecotypes typically differ significantly in morphology, physiology, and development, yet our understanding of their underlying genetic basis remains limited.

Physiological roles of lignins – tuning cell wall hygroscopy and biomechanics

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Lignins constitute the second most abundant carbon‐storing biopolymers in the biosphere. These phenolic polymers accumulate in different concentrations, compositions, and localisations within and between cell wall layers and cell types. Lignins were acquired during plant terrestrialisation 450 million years ago, and the diversification of their

Microbe‐induced resistance involves priming of direct or indirect defenses according to the stage of herbivory

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Microbe‐induced resistance (MIR) encompasses a broad range of plant responses that mediate both direct and indirect defenses against herbivores. However, previous studies have addressed MIR in relation to either direct or indirect defenses in isolation, overlooking potential conflicts or synergies that may arise between MIR‐elicited defense ...
