Multispecies interbreeding networks, or syngameons, have been increasingly reported in
natural systems. However, the formation, structure, and maintenance of syngameons have …

Genetic variation at five microsatellite loci was used to investigate the evolutionary and
geographical origins of cassava (Manihot esculenta subsp. esculenta) and the population …

Nearly four decades ago, Roose & Gottlieb (Roose & Gottlieb 1976 Evolution 30, 818–
830.(doi: 10.2307/2407821)) showed that the recently derived allotetraploids Tragopogon …

Leaf morphology was assessed in nine mixed oak stands (Quercus petraea and Q. robur)
located in eight European countries. Exhaustive sampling was used in an area of each …

To what extent do studies of the ecology of mutualistic interactions inform us about the
evolution of such relationships? As I will show below, the evolution of floral diversity seems …

Synchronous spawning of many coral species that co-occur on Indo-Pacific reefs raises the
possibility that hybridization plays a role in their evolution. Here we use experimental …

Whether new combinations of genes that result from hybridization and introgression
between wild and cultivated taxa are maintained, with the resultant development of …

Genetic mapping methods provide a unique opportunity to study the interactions of
differentiated genes and genomes in a hybrid genetic background. After a brief discussion of …

Nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA) internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences from artificial
hybrids and backcrosses between Armeria villosa ssp. longiaristata and A. colorata were …

Hybridization is an important evolutionary mechanism in plants and has been increasingly
documented in animals. Difficulty in reconstruction of reticulate evolution, however, has …
