Hybrid seed incompatibility in Capsella is connected to chromatin condensation defects in the endosperm

TL;DR: Investigation of molecular events accompanying seed failure in hybrids of the closely related species pair Capsella rubella and C. grandiflora concluded that relaxation of heterochromatin in response to interspecies hybridization exposes and activates loci leading to hybrid seed failure.

Analysis of allele-specific expression reveals cis-regulatory changes associated with a recent mating system shift and floral adaptation in Capsella

TL;DR: The results suggest that cis-regulatory changes have been important during the recent adaptive floral evolution in Capsella and that differences in TE dynamics between selfing and outcrossing species could be important for rapid regulatory divergence in association with mating system shifts.

The impact of natural selection on the distribution of cis-regulatory variation across the genome of an outcrossing plant

TL;DR: In this article, the selective importance and genomic correlates of cis-regulatory variation and divergence in the genus Capsella, using massively parallel sequencing data, were investigated, and it was shown that positive and purifying selection is important for the distribution of C. grandiflora variation across the genome.

Population genomics of transitions to selfing in Brassicaceae model systems

TL;DR: In the Brassicaceae, many studies on the population genetic, gene regulatory and genomic effects of selfing have centered on the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana and the crucifer genus Capsella as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome assemblies of three closely related leaf beetle species (Galerucella spp.).

TL;DR: This work reports genome assembly and annotation of three closely related Galerucella species, which will contribute to the understanding of host-parasitoid interactions, evolutionary comparisons of leaf beetle species and future population genomics studies.
