Untying Gordian knots: unraveling reticulate polyploid plant evolution by genomic data using the large Ranunculus auricomus species complex
Speciation via hybridization and polyploidization is a major evolutionary force in plant
evolution but is still poorly understood for neopolyploid groups. Challenges are attributed to …

Moving beyond assumptions: Polyploidy and environmental effects explain a geographical parthenogenesis scenario in European plants
Geographical parthenogenesis (GP) describes the phenomenon that apomicts tend to have
larger distribution areas and/or occur at higher altitudes or latitudes compared to sexual …

Incongruences between nuclear and plastid phylogenies challenge the identification of correlates of diversification in Gentiana in the European Alpine System
A Favre, J Paule, J Ebersbach - Alpine Botany, 2022 - Springer

Endemism in recently diverged angiosperms is associated with polyploidy
Endemic (range restricted or precinctive) plant species are frequently observed to exhibit
polyploidy (chromosome set duplication), which can drive shifts in ecology for angiosperms …
