Natural selection maintains species despite frequent hybridization in the desert shrub Encelia
Natural selection is an important driver of genetic and phenotypic differentiation between
species. For species in which potential gene flow is high but realized gene flow is low, …

Diversification, disparification and hybridization in the desert shrubs Encelia
There are multiple hypotheses for the spectacular plant diversity found in deserts. We explore
how different factors, including the roles of ecological opportunity and selection, promote …
