Polyploidy is a dominant feature of extant plant diversity. However, major research
questions, including whether polyploidy is important to long‐term evolution or is just …

Speciation via hybridization and polyploidization is a major evolutionary force in plant
evolution but is still poorly understood for neopolyploid groups. Challenges are attributed to …

The unveiling of the angiosperm (flowering plant) tree of life over the past three decades has
been one of the great success stories of modern plant biology. Flowering plants underpin …

Decades of empirical research have revealed how the geological history of our planet
shaped plant evolution by establishing well‐known patterns (eg, how mountain uplift …

PREMISE Recent, rapid radiations present a challenge for phylogenetic reconstruction. Fast
successive speciation events typically lead to low sequence divergence and poorly resolved …

Target enrichment is becoming increasingly popular for phylogenomic studies. Although
baits for enrichment are typically designed to target single-copy genes, paralogs are often …

Mountains of the Balkan Peninsula are significant biodiversity hotspots with great species
richness and a large proportion of narrow endemics. Processes that have driven the …

Whole-genome duplication (WGD; ie, polyploidy) and chromosomal rearrangement (ie,
genome shuffling) significantly influence genome structure and organization. Many …

Allopolyploids represent a new frontier in species discovery among embryophytes. Within
mosses, allopolyploid discovery is challenged by low morphological complexity. The rapid …

Hybridisation has been proposed to play an important role in fern evolution, but has been
difficult to investigate. This study explores the utility of target sequence capture and read-to …
