Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Non‐Ecological Speciation in Rubyspot Damselflies (Hetaerina spp.)
ABSTRACT Non‐ecological speciation is a common mode of speciation, which occurs when allopatric lineages diverge in the absence of pronounced ecological differences. Yet, relative to other speciation mechanisms, non‐ecological speciation remains understudied.

Summary Polyploidy plays a major role in diversification and speciation of almost all plants. Separately, the microbiome is recognized for its ubiquitous role in plant functioning. Despite the importance of both processes, we lack a synthetic picture of their reciprocal relationship.

Summary Sapindus is an important forest tree genus with utility in biodiesel, biomedicine, biochemistry and forestry. Similar to many perennial crop plants, its breeding is hampered by long generation times and lack of genetic resources. To understand the genome evolution underlying the important bioeconomic traits, we carried out a common garden ...

Domestication history of a hexaploid, the sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) [PDF]
Despite the importance of sweet potato as a food crop, its evolutionary history has been poorly investigated. The geographical and botanical origins of sweet potato remain unclear.

Maternal haploid induction in maize via mutation of Gamete Expression protein 1
Summary Doubled haploid (DH) technology, based on haploid induction (HI), is a crucial tool in enhancing crop‐breeding efficiency and has been successfully applied in various plant species. While many HI‐related genes have been identified using diverse strategies, the genetic basis and molecular mechanisms underlying HI remain incompletely understood ...

ESSENTIAL MEIOTIC ENDONUCLEASE 1 is required for chloroplast development and DNA repair in rice
Summary Chloroplast development is fundamental to photosynthesis and plant growth but is sensitive to environmental stress. Chloroplast development and division require genome stability and DNA repair, but the underlying mechanisms have been unclear. Using a forward genetic approach, we identified the striped‐leaf mutant k48 in the rice (Oryza sativa L.

Polyploid races, genetic structure and morphological features of the earthworm Octodrіlus transpadanus (Rosa, 1884) (Oligohaeta: Lumbricidae) in the Ukraine [PDF]
Kariological investigation of the earthworm Octodrilus transpada-nus (Rosa, 1884) in the Ukraine showed that this species is represented by at least three races of different ploidy with the basic chromosome number n=15. Strict geographic heterogeneity

Summary Glycosylation is an important aspect for many biopharmaceuticals, including vaccines against parasitic helminths. Plants, especially Nicotiana benthamiana, have proven to be excellent production hosts for biopharmaceuticals with tailor‐made glycosylation.
