This study examines how two subgenomes in the allotetraploid Capsella bursa-pastoris evolved and interacted across three populations, finding differential effects of introgression, selection, and population size.

The paper tests mutation-selection balance theory by analyzing eQTLs and aseQTLs in Capsella grandiflora, finding rare alleles with negative frequency-effect size correlations.

The paper uses whole genome sequencing to investigate if convergent flowering time evolution in Arabidopsis thaliana has a similar genetic basis in native and introduced ranges, finding no strong selection on native variants in the introduced range.
