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 …
