Intragenomic rDNA variation-the product of concerted evolution, mutation, or something in between?
The classical model of concerted evolution states that hundreds to thousands of ribosomal
DNA (rDNA) units undergo homogenization, making the multiple copies of the individual …

How just a few makes a lot: speciation via reticulation and apomixis on example of European brambles (Rubus subgen. Rubus, Rosaceae)
New species are generated by many means, among which hybridization plays an important
role. Interspecific hybrids can form isolated evolutionary units, especially when mechanisms …

Apomixis in systematics, evolution and phylogenetics of angiosperms: current developments and prospects
Apomixis, the reproduction via asexually formed seed, is taxonomically scattered in
angiosperms. Here we review the major developmental pathways to apomixis and the …

A next-generation sequencing method for overcoming the multiple gene copy problem in polyploid phylogenetics, applied to Poa grasses
Background Polyploidy is important from a phylogenetic perspective because of its immense
past impact on evolution and its potential future impact on diversification, survival and …

Rumbling orchids: how to assess divergent evolution between chloroplast endosymbionts and the nuclear host
Phylogenetic relationships inferred from multilocus organellar and nuclear DNA data are
often difficult to resolve because of evolutionary conflicts among gene trees. However …
