Wheat speciation and adaptation: perspectives from reticulate evolution. [PDF]
aBIOTECH, 2021 Reticulate evolution through the interchanging of genetic components across organisms can impact significantly on the fitness and adaptation of species. Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum subsp. aestivum) is one of the most important crops in the world. Allopolyploid speciation, frequent hybridization, extensive introgression, and occasional horizontal ...

Saltational Episodes of Reticulate Evolution in the Drosophila saltans Species Group. [PDF]
Mol Biol EvolPhylogenomics reveals reticulate evolution to be widespread across taxa, but whether reticulation is due to low statistical power or it is a true evolutionary pattern remains a field of investigation.

Towards a Research Programme Aiming at Causes and Consequences of Reticulate Evolution [PDF]
BiologyEvolution is reticulate. Reticulation increases diversity and complexity on the different levels of the evolutionary hierarchy. In addition to the tendency for diversity and complexity to increase in unchecked evolutionary systems by ongoing divergence (‘

5S-IGS rDNA in wind-pollinated trees (Fagus L.) encapsulates 55 million years of reticulate evolution and hybrid origins of modern species. [PDF]
Plant J, 2022 Standard models of plant speciation assume strictly dichotomous genealogies in which a species, the ancestor, is replaced by two offspring species. The reality in wind-pollinated trees with long evolutionary histories is more complex: species evolve from

Reticulate evolution in eukaryotes: Origin and evolution of the nitrate assimilation pathway. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2019 Genes and genomes can evolve through interchanging genetic material, this leading to reticular evolutionary patterns. However, the importance of reticulate evolution in eukaryotes, and in particular of horizontal gene transfer (HGT), remains ...

A Phylogenetic Networks perspective on reticulate human evolution [PDF]
iScience, 2021 SUMMARY: We present a methodological phylogenetic reconstruction approach combining Maximum Parsimony and Phylogenetic Networks methods for the study of human evolution applied to phenotypic craniodental characters of 22 hominin species.

Recent reticulate evolution in the ecologically dominant lineage of coccolithophores [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 The coccolithophore family Noëlaerhabdaceae contains a number of taxa that are very abundant in modern oceans, including the cosmopolitan bloom-forming Emiliania huxleyi. Introgressive hybridization has been suggested to account for incongruences between

Widespread Reticulate Evolution in an Adaptive Radiation.
Evolution, 2023 A fundamental assumption of evolutionary biology is that phylogeny follows a bifurcating process. However, hybrid speciation and introgression are becoming more widely documented in many groups.

Unraveling reticulate evolution in North American
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2012 Background The thirteen species of Dryopteris in North America have long been suspected of having undergone a complicated history of reticulate evolution via allopolyploid hybridization. Various explanations for the origins of the allopolyploid taxa have
