Phylogenomics has revealed the remarkable frequency with which introgression occurs
across the tree of life. These discoveries have been enabled by the rapid growth of methods …

The advances accelerated by next‐generation sequencing and long‐read sequencing
technologies continue to provide an impetus for plant phylogenetic study. In the past …

The mustard family (Brassicaceae) is a scientifically and economically important family,

Plant genomes vary greatly in size, organization, and architecture. Such structural
differences may be highly relevant for inference of genome evolution dynamics and …

Angiosperms have become the dominant terrestrial plant group by diversifying for~ 145
million years into a broad range of environments. During the course of evolution, numerous …

Introgression, endosymbiosis, and gene transfer, ie, horizontal gene flow (HGF), are
primordial sources of innovation in all domains of life. Our knowledge on HGF relies on …

Topological cytonuclear discordance is commonly observed in plant phylogenetic and
phylogeographic studies, yet few studies have attempted to detect two other forms of …

Hybrid production using lines with cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) has become an
important way to utilize heterosis in vegetables. Ogura CMS, with the advantages of …

The interaction and coevolution between nuclear and cytoplasmic genomes are one of the
fundamental hallmarks of eukaryotic genome evolution and, 2 billion yr later, are still major …

Hybridization is increasingly recognized as an important evolutionary process across the
tree of life. In many clades, phylogenomic approaches have permitted unparalleled insight …
