The revolutionary advancements in phylogenetic theory and sequencing technology have revived hope of resolving recalcitrant relationships but also revealed the common nature of more complexed genome evolution that leads to extensive gene tree heterogeneity. In various lineages o…

Hybridization has traditionally been viewed as a happenstance that negatively impacts populations, but is now recognized as an important evolutionary mechanism that can substantially impact the evolutionary trajectories of gene pools, influence adaptive capacity, and contravene …
Evolutionary history is typically portrayed as a branching phylogenetic tree, yet not all evolution proceeds in a purely bifurcating manner. Introgressive hybridization is one process that results in reticulate evolution. At ancient time scales, lateral movement of genetic mater…
