The analysis of polymorphism data is becoming increasingly important as a complementary
tool to classical genetic analyses. Nevertheless, despite plunging sequencing costs …

Quantitative genetics has a long history in plants: It has been used to study specific
biological processes, identify the factors important for trait evolution, and breed new crop …

Genome size and complexity vary tremendously among eukaryotic species and their
organelles. Comparisons across deeply divergent eukaryotic lineages have suggested that …

Key message Our understanding of the dynamic and evolution of RNA editing in
angiosperms is in part limited by the few editing sites identified to date. This study identified …

Epigenetic modifications are expected to occur at a much faster rate than genetic mutations,
potentially causing isolated populations to stochastically drift apart, or if they are subjected to …

Urbanization is a major cause of ecological degradation around the world, and human
settlement in large cities is accelerating. New York City (NYC) is one of the oldest and most …

The mosaic distribution of interbreeding taxa with contrasting ecology and morphology offers
an opportunity to study microevolutionary dynamics during ecological divergence. We …

In angiosperms, mitochondrial‐encoded genes can cause cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS),
resulting in the coexistence of female and hermaphroditic individuals (gynodioecy). We …

Aurantiochytrium is a promising docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) production candidate due to
its fast growth rate and high proportions of lipid and DHA content. In this study, high …

Understanding how organisms adapt to the environment is a major goal of modern biology.
Parallel evolution—the independent evolution of similar phenotypes in different populations …
