The wild currant tomato Solanum pimpinellifolium inhabits a wide range of abiotic habitats
across its native range of Ecuador and Peru. Although it has served as a key genetic resource …

Elevated rates of evolution in reproductive proteins are commonly observed in animal species,
and are thought to be driven by the action of sexual selection and sexual conflict acting …

The Galápagos Islands are home to incredible endemic biodiversity that is of high
conservation interest. Two such endemic species are the Galápagos tomatoes: Solanum …

The incongruence of character states with phylogenetic relationships is often interpreted as
evidence of convergent evolution. However, trait evolution along discordant gene trees can …

Invasive species represent one of the foremost risks to global biodiversity. Here, we use
population genomics to evaluate the history and consequences of an invasion of wild tomato—…

Genetic correlations among different components of phenotypes, especially those resulting
from pleiotropy, can constrain or facilitate trait evolution. These factors could especially …

A goal of speciation genetics is to understand how the genetic components underlying
interspecific reproductive barriers originate within species. Unilateral incompatibility (UI) is a …

Hybridization is recognized as an important process in plant evolution, and this may be
particularly true for island plants where several biotic and abiotic factors facilitate interspecific …

Premise The mating system has profound consequences, not only for ecology and evolution,
but also for the conservation of threatened or endangered species. Unfortunately, small …

Reference-based genotype imputation is a standard technique that has become increasingly
popular in large-scale studies involving genomic data. The two key elements involved in …
