Integrated phylogenomic analyses unveil reticulate evolution in Parthenocissus (Vitaceae), highlighting speciation dynamics in the Himalayan–Hengduan Mountains
Hybridization caused by frequent environmental changes can lead both to species
diversification (speciation) and to speciation reversal (despeciation), but the latter has rarely …
