Multilocus sequence typing of the invasive pest Halyomorpha halys (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) and associated endosymbiont reveals unexplored diversity

Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 1187-1205, June 2026.
A multilocus sequence typing approach is proposed to explore Halymorpha halys genetic diversity, taking into consideration both insect nuclear markers and markers from the gut symbiont “Candidatus Pantoa carbekii.” Increased information was revealed regarding the number of distinct holobiont haplotypes in native and invasive populations of the pest ...

Trait coevolution and causal inference using generalized dynamic phylogenetic models

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 6, Page 1818-1836, June 2026.
Abstract Phylogenetic comparative methods are widely used to study trait coevolution across biological and cultural domains. The most common methods are phylogenetic generalized linear (mixed) models, phylogenetic path analysis, Pagel's ‘discrete’ method and Ornstein–Uhlenbeck models. While some frameworks like generalized linear mixed models are quite

Unraveling historical genetic divergence and gene flow patterns between island (Taiwan) and mainland (China) of Fagus hayatae

Frontiers in Plant Science
The disjunctive distribution of Fagus hayatae between Taiwan and mainland China provides a unique framework for understanding phylogeographic patterns and evolutionary processes in relict tree species.

Macrogenetic Alignment in Ecological Strategies Better Interprets Assembly Processes Than Pre‐Determined Functional Groupings

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
A comparative macrogenetic framework reveals that standardised landscape‐genomics can identify shared patterns reflecting common histories and assembly processes. We detected convergence in distributional dynamics and delineate three broad patterns and five species groups defined by gene flow and isolation‐by‐distance, highlighting the limitations of ...

Integrative Analysis of Diphasiastrum digitatum Holub: Unveiling Genetic Variation and Ecological Adaptations for Sustainable Ecosystem Management

Ecology and Evolution
Understanding the diversity and ecological evolutionary history of plant species is crucial for addressing the current biodiversity crisis and comprehending the processes by which organisms fill ecological and geographic spaces. In this study, we present

Life in the Underworld: Anchialine cave biology in the era of speleogenomics

International Journal of Speleology, 2016
Anchialine caves contain haline bodies of water with underground connections to the ocean and limited exposure to open air. Despite being found on islands and peninsular coastlines around the world, the isolation of anchialine systems has facilitated the

Phylogeography and allopatric divergence in cypress species (Cupressus L.) in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau and adjacent regions [PDF]

, 2010
Additional files can be found at http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/10/194Background Although allopatric speciation is viewed as the most common way in which species originate, allopatric divergence among a group of closely related species has rarely

Speciation History Shapes Patterns of Assemblage Species Richness in Birds

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
Speciation is the ultimate source of biodiversity. However, because most species arise in spatial isolation, how speciation shapes patterns of co‐occurring species richness remains unclear. Here we examine how the legacy of speciation affects contemporary biodiversity patterns via a phylogenetic model and show that this build‐up is remarkably slow and ...

An Integrated Study of Ramie (Boehmeria nivea), and Its Wild, Cultivated, and Feral Forms

Ecology and Evolution
Feralization, the re‐establishment of wild populations from domesticated ancestors, can involve multiple parallel character reversions and potentially also rampant gene flow with cultivated and/or naturally wild material.
