Molecular Detection and Multilocus Sequence Analysis of ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma Solani’ Strains Infecting Neighbouring Potato and Sugar Beet Fields in Southern Germany

open access: yesJournal of Phytopathology, Volume 173, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Phytoplasmas were detected in potato tubers and sugar beet roots in neighbouring fields in Southern Germany using quantitative PCR. Infected potato plants showed phytoplasma‐associated symptoms including yellowing, upward leaf rolling, aerial tubers and early senescence.

Ecological and Mutation‐Order Speciation in Senecio

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 22, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Natural selection shapes how new species arise, yet the mechanisms that generate reproductive barriers remain actively debated. Although ecological divergence in contrasting environments and mutation‐order processes in similar environments are often viewed as distinct speciation mechanisms, we show they can occur simultaneously and act as part

The Shapes of Clines and Wavefronts

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 22, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Cline theory has a central place in speciation studies. Cline locations delimit taxon boundaries, cline widths scale with barrier strength, and the shapes of clines (smooth or stepped) suggest whether species barriers are mono‐ or polygenic. How cline shapes vary along chromosomes therefore forms part of the genome's species barrier landscape.

Wolbachia Host Shifts and Widespread Occurrence of Reproductive Manipulation Loci in European Butterflies

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 21, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Wolbachia is the most frequent bacterial endosymbiont of arthropods and nematodes. Although it is mostly vertically transmitted, from parent to offspring through the egg cytoplasm, horizontal transfer of Wolbachia is thought to be common over evolutionary timescales.

Ancient Introgression Explains Mitochondrial Genome Capture and Mitonuclear Discordance Among South American Collared Tropidurus Lizards

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 21, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Mitonuclear discordance—evolutionary discrepancies between mitochondrial and nuclear DNA phylogenies—can arise from various factors, including introgression, incomplete lineage sorting, recent or ancient demographic fluctuations, sex‐biased dispersal asymmetries, among others.

Habitat Differences in Resource Density and Distribution Affect Ecology and Life History of a Landscape‐Modifying Fish

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 22, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Resource heterogeneity is a widespread phenomenon, as resources are rarely spaced evenly across a landscape. Variation in resource density and distribution can have a myriad of behavioural, ecological, and evolutionary consequences for populations, yet clarifying these effects is still challenging.
