Ecological and evolutionary implications of hybridization, polyploidy and apomixis in angiosperms

Botan‪ical Sciences
Hybridization, polyploidy, and apomixis are related to the diversification of angiosperms, generating complex taxonomic relationships between species. Despite the differences in the frequencies of these phenomena, apomixis, the asexual seed production ...

Tracing the biogeographic history of the world's most isolated insular floras

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
We inferred the spatio–temporal colonization histories of seven vascular plant lineages (Acaena magellanica, Austroblechnum penna‐marina, Azorella selago, Colobanthus kerguelensis, Notogrammitis crassior, Polystichum marionense, Pringlea antiscorbutica) using phylogenetic, divergence time estimation, and Bayesian Island Biogeographic analyses.

Impacts of climatic niche breadth, phylogeny, traits and ploidy on geographical ranges of Betula species

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Geographical range size is a fundamental ecological characteristic of a species. We quantified the effects of phylogeny, climatic niche breadth, morphological traits and ploidy on range size variation of Betula species. Climatic niche breadth has the strongest effect on the range size variation of Betula species.

Genomics‐Driven Monitoring of Fraxinus latifolia (Oregon Ash) to Inform Conservation and EAB‐Resistance Breeding

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the evolutionary processes underlying range‐wide genomic variation is critical to designing effective conservation and restoration strategies. Evaluating the influence of connectivity, demographic change and environmental adaptation for threatened species can be invaluable to proactive conservation of evolutionary potential.

Uncovering the reciprocal effects of plant polyploidy and the microbiome: implications for understanding of polyploid success

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
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.

Aurkin-A, a TPX2-Aurora A small molecule inhibitor disrupts Alisertib-induced polyploidy in aggressive diffuse large B cell lymphoma

Neoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research
Chemotherapy induced polyploidy is a mechanism of inherited drug resistance resulting in an aggressive disease course in cancer patients. Alisertib, an Aurora Kinase A (AK-A) ATP site inhibitor, induces cell cycle disruption resulting in polyaneuploidy ...

Low genetic differentiation across restored and natural populations shortly after a large‐scale, post‐fire seeding in the Great Basin

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Genetic diversity is essential for species to adapt to environmental changes. In restoration efforts, such as those after large wildfires in the sagebrush steppe of the Great Basin, commercially produced native seeds are used to revegetate the burned areas.

Polyploidy and the Cellular and Areal Diversity of Rat Cortical Layer 5 Pyramidal Neurons

Cell Reports, 2017
In many species, polyploidy, in which an increase in nuclear DNA content is accompanied by an increase in cell size, contributes to cellular diversity.

The practice and promise of temporal genomics for measuring evolutionary responses to global change

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 5, July 2025.
Abstract Understanding the evolutionary consequences of anthropogenic change is imperative for estimating long‐term species resilience. While contemporary genomic data can provide us with important insights into recent demographic histories, investigating past change using present genomic data alone has limitations.

Duplicate gene evolution, homoeologous recombination, and transcriptome characterization in allopolyploid cotton

BMC Genomics, 2012
Background Modern allotetraploid cotton contains an “A” and “D” genome from an ancestral polyploidy event that occurred approximately 1–2 million years ago.
