Convergent evolution of sex chromosomes in two palm species, <i>Phoenix dactylifera</i> and <i>Kerriodoxa elegans</i> Open
Summary - In palms, many dioecious species have emerged from at least 8 independent events, yet the mechanisms of sex determination remain poorly understood. Here, we identify and compare the sex chromosomes of Kerriodoxa elegans with thos…

Allopolyploidy: An Underestimated Driver in Juniperus Evolution Open
Allopolyploidy is considered as a principal driver that shaped angiosperms’ evolution in terms of diversification and speciation. Despite the unexpected high frequency of polyploidy that was recently discovered in the coniferous genus Juni…

The evolution of the hypotetraploid Catolobus pendulus genome – the poorly known sister species of Capsella Open
The establishment of Arabidopsis as the most important plant model has also brought other crucifer species into the spotlight of comparative research. While the genus Capsella has become a prominent crucifer model system, its closest relat…

Evolutionary history of two rare endemic conifer species from the eastern Qinghai–Tibet Plateau Open
Background and Aims Understanding the population genetics and evolutionary history of endangered species is urgently needed in an era of accelerated biodiversity loss. This knowledge is most important for regions with high endemism that ar…

<i>Juniperus</i> L. for Restoration of Degraded Forest Lands in Turkey Open
Degraded forests are among of the most important environmental and commercial problems around the world. Turkey has 22.74 million hectares of forest area, out of which 9.656 million ha (42%) are unproductive. To transform these unproductiv…

Tracking diversity and evolutionary pathways of Lebanese oak taxa through plastome analyses Open
The aim of this study is to better understand the phylogeography and evolution of the Lebanese oaks and to assess the convergence between their morpho-ecological and molecular characteristics. We investigated DNA sequence variation in four…

Development and Characterization of EST-SSR Markers for <i>Juniperus squamata</i> (Cupressaceae), an ecologically important conifer in Asian mountains Open
Juniperus squamata , an endemic conifer of Asia, is an important shrub ecologically and economically. Yet little is known about its genetic diversity and population structure due to lacking of highly polymorphic molecular markers. In this …

Polyploidy in the Conifer Genus Juniperus: An Unexpectedly High Rate Open
Recent research suggests that the frequency of polyploidy may have been underestimated in gymnosperms. One notable example is in the conifer genus Juniperus, where there are already a few reports of polyploids although data are still missi…
