Computational approaches to species phylogeny inference and gene tree reconciliation
L Nakhleh - Trends in ecology & evolution, 2013 - cell.com
An intricate relation exists between gene trees and species phylogenies, due to evolutionary
processes that act on the genes within and across the branches of the species phylogeny …

Allopolyploidy, diversification, and the Miocene grassland expansion
The role of polyploidy, particularly allopolyploidy, in plant diversification is a subject of
debate. Whole-genome duplications precede the origins of many major clades (eg …

Are polyploids really evolutionary dead-ends (again)? A critical reappraisal of Mayrose et al. (2011)
Background Throughout the past century, hybridization and polyploidization have variously
been viewed as drivers of biodiversity (eg Arnold, 1997) or evolutionary noise, unimportant …

Improved transcriptome sampling pinpoints 26 ancient and more recent polyploidy events in Caryophyllales, including two allopolyploidy events
Studies of the macroevolutionary legacy of polyploidy are limited by an incomplete sampling
of these events across the tree of life. To better locate and understand these events, we …
