Alleles that introgress between species can influence the evolutionary and ecological fate of
species exposed to novel environments. Hybrid offspring of different species are often unfit …

Hybridization is an evolutionary phenomenon that has fascinated biologists for centuries.
Prior to the advent of whole-genome sequencing, it was clear that hybridization had played …

Homoploid hybrid speciation in animals has been inferred frequently from patterns of
variation, but few examples have withstood critical scrutiny. Here we report a directly …

Phylogenomics has revealed the remarkable frequency with which introgression occurs
across the tree of life. These discoveries have been enabled by the rapid growth of methods …

Summary The Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP) sensu lato (sl), comprising the platform, the
Himalaya and the Hengduan Mountains, is characterized by a large number of endemic …

Species can be defined as populations that are diagnosably distinct, reproductively isolated,
cohesive, or exclusive groups of organisms. Boundaries between species in sympatry are …

Hybridization among diverging lineages is common in nature. Genomic data provide a
special opportunity to characterize the history of hybridization and the genetic basis of …

Hybridization has played an important role in the evolution of many lineages. With the
growing availability of genomic tools and advancements in genomic analyses, it is becoming …

Hybridization, defined as breeding between two distinct taxonomic units, can have an
important effect on the evolutionary patterns in cross-breeding taxa. Although interspecific …

It has long been recognized that hybridization and polyploidy are prominent processes in
plant evolution. Although classically recognized as significant in speciation and adaptation …
