Reticulate evolution in the Pteris fauriei group (Pteridaceae) [PDF]
The Pteris fauriei group (Pteridaceae) has a wide distribution in Eastern Asia and includes 18 species with similar but varied morphology. We collected more than 300 specimens of the P.

Reticulate Evolution in AA-Genome Wild Rice in Australia [PDF]
The wild rice gene pool, i.e., AA-genome, in Australia is geographically and genetically distinct from that in Asia. Two distinct taxa are found growing together in northern Australia, Oryza meridionalis (including annual and perennial forms) and an ...

Are Ophiolitic Substrates Drivers for Reticulate Evolution in Armeria (Plumbaginaceae)? [PDF]
Ultramafic substrates can play a role in fostering ecological adaptation and microevolutionary dynamics. The Armeria denticulata complex includes two flowering plant species (A. denticulata and A.

Reticulate Evolution in the Western Mediterranean Mountain Ranges: The Case of the Leucanthemopsis Polyploid Complex [PDF]
Polyploidization is one of the most common speciation mechanisms in plants. This is particularly relevant in high mountain environments and/or in areas heavily affected by climatic oscillations.

Phylogenomic analyses reveal reticulate evolution between Neomicrocalamus and Temochloa (Poaceae: Bambusoideae) [PDF]
Neomicrocalamus and Temochloa are closely related to bamboo genera. However, when considered with newly discovered and morphologically similar material from China and Vietnam, the phylogenetic relationship among these three groups was ambiguous in the ...

Unraveling Reticulate Evolution in Opuntia (Cactaceae) From Southern Mexico [PDF]
The process of hybridization occurs in approximately 40% of vascular plants, and this exchange of genetic material between non-conspecific individuals occurs unequally among plant lineages, being more frequent in certain groups such as Opuntia (Cactaceae)

Analysis of phylogenetic relationships in Macadamia shows evidence of extensive reticulate evolution [PDF]
The genus Macadamia in the Proteaceae family includes four species native to Australia. Two of the four species, M. integrifolia and M. tetraphylla, have recently been utilized to generate domesticated macadamia varieties, grown for their edible nuts. To

Deciphering complex reticulate evolution of Asian Buddleja (Scrophulariaceae): insights into the taxonomy and speciation of polyploid taxa in the Sino-Himalayan region. [PDF]
Background and Aims Species of the genus Buddleja in Asia are mainly distributed in the Sino-Himalayan region and form a challenging taxonomic group, with extensive hybridization and polyploidization. A phylogenetic approach to unravelling the history of

Whole-genome analyses disentangle reticulate evolution of primroses in a biodiversity hotspot. [PDF]
Summary Biodiversity hotspots, such as the Caucasus mountains, provide unprecedented opportunities for understanding the evolutionary processes that shape species diversity and richness. Therefore, we investigated the evolution of Primula sect.
