Plant phylogeography of the Balkan Peninsula: spatiotemporal patterns and processes
Abstract The Balkan Peninsula is widely acknowledged as one of the centers of European
biodiversity and a major glacial refugium for plant species. Its extensive geographic …

Polyploid plants have faster rates of multivariate niche differentiation than their diploid relatives
Polyploid speciation entails substantial and rapid postzygotic reproductive isolation of
nascent species that are initially sympatric with one or both parents. Despite strong …

Niche divergence and limits to expansion in the high polyploid Dianthus broteri complex
Niche evolution in plant polyploids remains controversial and evidence for alternative
patterns has been reported. Using the autopolyploid Dianthus broteri complex (2×, 4×, 6× …

The importance of considering the evolutionary history of polyploids when assessing climatic niche evolution
Aim Although whole‐genome duplication (WGD) is an important speciation force, we still
lack a consensus on the role of niche differentiation in polyploid evolution. In addition, the …

Intricate Distribution Patterns of Six Cytotypes of Allium oleraceum at a Continental Scale: Niche Expansion and Innovation Followed by Niche Contraction With …
The establishment and success of polyploids are thought to often be facilitated by ecological
niche differentiation from diploids. Unfortunately, most studies compared diploids and …

Nonsymbiotic legumes are more invasive, but only if polyploid
Both mutualism and polyploidy are thought to influence invasion success in plants, but few
studies have tested their joint effects. Mutualism can limit range expansion when plants …

[PDF][PDF] Spreading Winge and flying high: the evolutionary importance of polyploidy after a century of study
McGrath et al., 2014; Scienski et al., 2015) revealed that many eukaryotes do indeed have a
polyploid ancestry. Although there have been recent debates on the average fate of …
