Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of Nuclear and Chloroplast Data Combined With Network Analyses Supports the Polyploid Origin of the Apple Tribe and the Hybrid Origin of the Maleae—Gillenieae Clade
TL;DR: This work synthesizes existing genomic data with novel analyses and uses network analyses and multi-labeled trees to test the competing wide-hybridization and spiraeoid hypotheses and indicates that nuclear gene tree-species tree conflict and/or cytonuclear conflict are pervasive at several other nodes in subfamily Amygdaloideae of Rosaceae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isoëtes viridimontana: A Previously Unrecognized Quillwort from Vermont, USA
TL;DR: Plants of this species are currently known only from Haystack Pond, a small, acidic, oligotrophic lake in south central Vermont, which is distinguished from other Isoëtes species in northeastern North America by its size and granulate to rugulate megaspore texture.
Journal ArticleDOI
Homoploid hybrids, allopolyploids, and high ploidy levels characterize the evolutionary history of a western North American quillwort (Isoëtes) complex.

TL;DR: In this article, the role of hybridization and high-level polyploidy in generating and maintaining novel diversity in Isoetes has been investigated using restriction-site associated DNA sequencing (RADseq).
Journal ArticleDOI
Variable and sexually conflicting selection on Silene stellata floral traits by a putative moth pollinator selective agent.
TL;DR: A trade‐off mechanism that could thwart the evolution of an “escape route” from the nocturnal pollination syndrome by Silene spp.
