3RAD‐Guided SNP Discovery for Species Identification and Conservation of the Medicinal Southern African Tree Genus Greyia Hook. & Harv.

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
A two‐phase SNP discovery and assay‐development strategy was used to resolve species boundaries within the tree genus Greyia, as overlapping phenotypes and distributions limit accurate identification. From 47,726 genome‐wide SNPs generated by 3RAD sequencing, a diagnostic 23‐SNP Type panel was developed and validated, successfully distinguishing G ...

Integration of Genome‐Skimming Sequencing and Morphological Evidence Reveals Two New Endemic Species of Sinocrassula From Yunnan Province, China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Sinocrassula crassifolia. ABSTRACT Sinocrassula represents the medium‐sized Asian genus within Crassulaceae, exhibiting maximum species diversity in China. This study presented the first comprehensive phylogenetic analyses of Sinocrassula, utilizing both sanger data and next‐generation sequencing data.

Hypotheses for the Adaptive Maintenance of Phenotypic Polymorphisms

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Phenotypic polymorphisms offer easily observable diversity ideal for empirical and theoretical exploration, but developing and comparing hypotheses for the adaptive maintenance of polymorphism can be a challenge. Here, we propose a framework categorizing polymorphisms based on (i) one of five distinct types of maintenance selection and (ii) the context

Evolution of Peripheral Visual System in the Apoidea: A Role for Food Item Mobility?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Since larger compound eyes and ocelli altogether improve vision, one may expect that insects specialised in chasing very mobile resources possess such morphological optimisation. By analysing 77 species of bees and wasps, we have found that wasps had larger eyes, but not larger ocelli, than bees.
