The paper shows that ancient whole-genome duplications are often detected through hybridization rather than true polyploidy, based on Ks distribution analysis.

The paper assesses how plant functional traits interact with regional threats to predict extinction risk, finding smaller herbaceous species are more vulnerable and some threats reduce extinction risk.

This paper presents the first chromosome-scale, haplotype-resolved genome assembly and annotation for Carya glabra, revealing it as an autotetraploid and providing resources for ecological and agricultural studies.

This study reconstructs the diversification history of Agalinis, showing it originated in North America, dispersed to South America, and diversified rapidly in the Brazilian highlands, linked to hummingbird pollination and perennial life history shifts.

This study investigates the rapid radiation of the Isodon lineage in southwest China's dry valleys, linking it to habitat and growth form shifts during the Pliocene.

The paper presents a haplotype-resolved genome assembly of Amborella trichopoda, identifying a young ZW sex chromosome system with a 3-Megabase sex-determination region that shows limited degeneration.

This paper develops a CRISPR/Cas9 system for efficient gene editing and overexpression in the fern Ceratopteris richardii, demonstrating functional effects on stomatal and photosynthetic traits.

This study resolves the origin of octoploid strawberries by identifying hybridization events between specific diploid species as the source of subgenomes A and B.

nQuack predicts ploidy from sequence data using site-based heterozygosity, improving upon existing methods with model selection and simulation.

This study maps phylogenetic diversity and endemism in Astragalus across temperate arid regions, identifying climate factors driving diversity patterns and biogeographic gateways.

The paper identifies SR hotspots and analyzes the distribution of non-RNS mimosoid legumes, finding they correlate with high RPD and specific environmental conditions.

The paper compares gene expression levels between diploid and autotetraploid Tolmiea species using different normalization methods and finds that per-cell normalization reveals more differentially expressed genes.
