TL;DR: Pervasive autosomal introgression between these human malaria vectors, including nonsister vector species, suggests that traits enhancing vectorial capacity may be gained through interspecific gene flow, including between nonsister species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogenomics Reveals Three Sources of Adaptive Variation during a Rapid Radiation.
TL;DR: It is indicated that multiple genetic sources can promote rapid diversification and speciation in response to new ecological opportunity, in agreement with the emerging phylogenomic understanding of the complexity of both ancient and recent species radiations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection and Polarization of Introgression in a Five-Taxon Phylogeny
James B. Pease,Matthew W. Hahn +1 more
TL;DR: New [Formula: see text] tests are proposed as an integrated framework to infer both the taxa involved in and the direction of introgression for a symmetric five-taxon phylogeny and are computationally inexpensive to calculate and can easily be applied to phylogenomic data sets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quartet Sampling distinguishes lack of support from conflicting support in the green plant tree of life.
TL;DR: The Quartet Sampling method corroborates growing evidence that phylogenomic investigations that incorporate discordance testing are warranted when reconstructing complex evolutionary histories, in particular those surrounding ANA-grade, monocots, and nonvascular plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
More accurate phylogenies inferred from low-recombination regions in the presence of incomplete lineage sorting.
James B. Pease,Matthew W. Hahn +1 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that recurrent selection is acting in low‐recombination regions of the genome, such that current levels of diversity also reflect past decreases in the effective population size at these same loci.
