Journal ArticleDOI

The sunflower genome provides insights into oil metabolism, flowering and Asterid evolution

TL;DR: It is found that the genomic architecture of flowering time has been shaped by the most recent whole-genome duplication, which suggests that ancient paralogues can remain in the same regulatory networks for dozens of millions of years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hybridization and extinction.

TL;DR: It is found that while extinction risk is highly situation dependent, genetic swamping is much more frequent than demographic swamping, and it is concluded that halting the introduction of hybridization‐prone exotics and restoring mature and diverse habitats that are resistant to hybrid establishment should be management priorities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene flow and selection interact to promote adaptive divergence in regions of low recombination

TL;DR: This study provides the first statistical evidence that the interaction of gene flow and selection biases divergence toward regions of low recombination, potentially favouring divergence and adaptive evolution in these regions over others.
