Coevolution between floral traits and specific pollination behaviour is a significant
evolutionary force in angiosperm diversification. However, hybridization is also reported to …

Recent technological advances in long‐read high‐throughput sequencing and assembly
methods have facilitated the generation of annotated chromosome‐scale whole‐genome …

Diversification and demographic responses are key processes shaping species evolutionary
history. Yet we still lack a full understanding of ecological mechanisms that shape genetic …

Abstract Background and Aims Cactaceae are succulent plants, quasi-endemic to the
American continent, and one of the most endangered plant groups in the world. Molecular …

Understanding how life history shapes genetic diversity is a fundamental issue in
evolutionary biology, with important consequences for conservation. However, we still have …

Hybridization is one of the key processes shaping lineage diversification, particularly in
regions that experienced strong climate oscillations. The alpine biome with its rich history of …

Floral traits are used as signals to attract pollinators and play an important role in species
identification and isolation. Nicotiana is a genus with a diverse range of flower …

Selection together with variation in floral traits can act to mold floral form, often driven by a
plant's predominant or most effective pollinators. To investigate the evolution of traits …

Habitat stability is important for maintaining biodiversity by preventing species extinction, but
this stability is being challenged by climate change. The tropical alpine ecosystem is …

Natural hybridisation is now recognised as pervasive in its occurrence across the Tree of
Life. Resurgent interest in natural hybridisation fuelled by developments in genomics has …
