Phytophthora isolates associated with Phytophthora major ITS Clade 6 were grouped into
11 phenotypic taxa. These comprised the described morphospecies P. gonapodyides, P …

Figs (Ficus, Moraceae) are either monoecious or gynodioecious depending on the
arrangement of unisexual florets within the specialized inflorescence or syconium. The …

Polyploid formation has played a major role in the evolution of many plant and animal
genomes; however, surprisingly little is known regarding the subsequent evolution of DNA …

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

Gene trees are generally assumed to reflect the underlying phylogeny of the species, and
they are, therefore, generally expected to be congruent with each other. Published gene …

Despite its value as a crop and potential utility as an experimental system, relatively little is
known about the molecular-genetic aspects of inheritance or physiology in the cultivated …

The phylogeny of Rosoideae was investigated using 44 species. Here we report new
sequence data from the chloroplast trnL/F region as well as an increased sample of species …

The origin of the rare allotetraploid Silene aegaea was inferred from plastid rps16 intron
sequences, homoeologous copies of nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) …

Although Acropora is the most species‐rich genus of the scleractinian (stony) corals, only
three species occur in the Caribbean: A. cervicornis, A. palmata and A. prolifera. Based on …

Allopolyploidy is a prominent mode of speciation in higher plants. Due to the coexistence of
closely related genomes, a successful allopolyploid must have the ability to invoke and …
