Whole-genome duplications are radical evolutionary events that have driven speciation and adaptation in many taxa. Higher-order
polyploids have complex histories often including interspecific hybridization and dynamic genomic changes. This chromosomal
reshuffling is poorly understood for most polyploid species, despite their evolutionary and agricultural importance, due to the
challenge of distinguishing...
BACKGROUND: As it becomes increasingly possible to obtain DNA sequences of orthologous genes from diverse sets
of taxa, species trees are frequently being inferred from multilocus data. However, the behavior of many methods for
performing this inference has remained largely unexplored. Some methods have been proven to be consistent given...

We studied the natural hybrid (Fragaria ×ananassa subsp. cuneifolia) between
two sexually dimorphic octoploid strawberry species (F. virginiana and F.
chiloensis) to gain insight into the dynamics of sex chromosomes and the
genesis of sexual dimorphism. Male sterility is dominant in both the parental
species and thus will be inherited...

• Premise of the study: The dramatic advances offered by modern DNA sequencers continue to redefine the limits of what can be accomplished in comparative plant biology. Even with recent achievements, however, plant genomes present obstacles that can make it difficult to execute large-scale population and phylogenetic studies on next-generation...
