The role of hybridization in plant speciation
The importance of hybridization in plant speciation and evolution has been debated for
decades, with opposing views of hybridization as either a creative evolutionary force or …

Rapid Chromosome Evolution in Recently Formed Polyploids in Tragopogon (Asteraceae)
Background Polyploidy, frequently termed “whole genome duplication”, is a major force in
the evolution of many eukaryotes. Indeed, most angiosperm species have undergone at …

Evolution and Expression of Homeologous Loci in Tragopogon miscellus (Asteraceae), a Recent and Reciprocally Formed Allopolyploid
On both recent and ancient time scales, polyploidy (genome doubling) has been a
significant evolutionary force in plants. Here, we examined multiple individuals from …

Hybrid speciation in angiosperms: parental divergence drives ploidy
Hybridization and polyploidy are now hypothesized to have regularly stimulated speciation
in angiosperms, but individual or combined involvement of these two processes seems to …

Resolving an ancient, rapid radiation in Saxifragales
Despite the prior use of∼ 9000 bp, deep-level relationships within the angiosperm clade,
Saxifragales remain enigmatic, due to an ancient, rapid radiation (89.5 to 110 Ma based on …

Gene loss and silencing in Tragopogon miscellus (Asteraceae): comparison of natural and synthetic allotetraploids
Whole-genome duplication (polyploidisation) is a widespread mechanism of speciation in
plants. Over time, polyploid genomes tend towards a more diploid-like state, through …
