This study investigates the genomic consequences of repeated loss of distyly in Linum species, finding mixed evidence for relaxed selection and no clear genomic signature of selfing in homostylous lineages.

This study examines the evolution of the S-locus supergene and molecular mechanisms of distyly in Linum species, finding conserved genetic architecture and brassinosteroid pathway involvement in style length polymorphism.

This study uses whole-genome sequencing and machine learning to reconstruct demographic history and gene-flow patterns among African populations, finding that tree-like histories with gene-flow pulses better explain genetic diversity than continuous gene-flow.

This study identifies genetic and genomic factors underlying the breakdown of distyly in Linum trigynum, showing reduced purifying selection and mutations affecting floral gene expression.
