The Evolutionary Genomics of Serpentine Adaptation (2020)
Journal Article

© Copyright © 2020 Konečná, Yant and Kolář. Serpentine barrens are among the most challenging settings for plant life. Representing a perfect storm of hazards, serpentines consist of broadly skewed elemental profiles, including abundant toxic metals...

Help or hindrance? The evolutionary impact of whole-genome duplication on immunogenetic diversity and parasite load (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020 The Authors. Ecology and Evolution published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd. Whole-genome duplication (WGD) events occur in all kingdoms and have been hypothesized to promote adaptability. WGDs identified in the early history of vertebrates, teleo... Read More about Help or hindrance? The evolutionary impact of whole-genome duplication on immunogenetic diversity and parasite load.

Formation and diversification of a paradigm biosynthetic gene cluster in plants (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020, The Author(s). Numerous examples of biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs), including for compounds of agricultural and medicinal importance, have now been discovered in plant genomes. However, little is known about how these complex traits are as... Read More about Formation and diversification of a paradigm biosynthetic gene cluster in plants.

A novel allele of ASY3 is associated with greater meiotic stability in autotetraploid Arabidopsis lyrata (2020)
Journal Article

In this study we performed a genotype-phenotype association analysis of meiotic stability in 10 autotetraploid Arabidopsis lyrata and A. lyrata/A. arenosa hybrid populations collected from the Wachau region and East Austrian Forealps. The aim was to... Read More about A novel allele of ASY3 is associated with greater meiotic stability in autotetraploid Arabidopsis lyrata.

Polyploidy breaks speciation barriers in Australian burrowing frogs Neobatrachus (2020)
Journal Article

Polyploidy has played an important role in evolution across the tree of life but it is still unclear how polyploid lineages may persist after their initial formation. While both common and well-studied in plants, polyploidy is rare in animals and gen... Read More about Polyploidy breaks speciation barriers in Australian burrowing frogs Neobatrachus.
