In the past decade, advances in genome sequencing have allowed researchers to uncover
the history of hybridization in diverse groups of species, including our own. Although the …

Reproductive isolation in plants occurs through multiple barriers that restrict gene flow
between populations, but their origins remain uncertain. Work in the past decade has shown …

Similar traits and functions commonly evolve in nature. Here, we explore patterns of
replicated evolution across the plant kingdom and discuss the processes responsible for …

Speciation is driven by the evolution of reproductive isolating barriers that reduce, and
ultimately prevent, substantial gene flow between lineages. Despite its central role in …

Pollen-pistil interactions serve as important prezygotic reproductive barriers that play a
critical role in mate selection in plants. Here, we highlight recent progress toward …

Plants adapted to special soil types are ideal for investigating evolutionary processes,
including maintenance of intraspecific variation, adaptation, reproductive isolation, ecotypic …

Genetic correlations between traits can concentrate genetic variance into fewer phenotypic
dimensions that can bias evolutionary trajectories along the axis of greatest genetic variance …

Understanding the relative roles of intrinsic and extrinsic reproductive barriers, and their
interplay within the geographic context of diverging taxa, remains an outstanding challenge …

Measuring reproductive barriers between groups of organisms is an effective way to
determine the traits and mechanisms that impede gene flow. However, to understand the …

Identifying the genetic architecture underlying adaptive traits is exceptionally challenging in
natural populations. This is because associations between traits not only mask the targets of …
