Introgression between Betula tianshanica and Betula microphylla and its implications for conservation
In areas where closely related species meet, the possibility that they may hybridize must be taken into account by conservationists. Hybridization may have positive or negative consequences for the long‐term future of species. If present, its dynamics need to be understood. Betula microphylla is a declining wetland tree species in... -

Population structure of Betula albosinensis and Betula platyphylla: evidence for hybridization and a cryptic lineage
Background and Aims Differences in local abundance and ploidy level are predicted to impact the direction of introgression between species. Here, we tested these hypotheses on populations of Betula albosinensis (red birch) and Betula platyphylla (white birch) which were thought to differ in ploidy level, the former being tetraploid and...Hu, Ya-Nan ; Zhao, Lei ; Buggs, Richard ; Zhang, Xue-Min ; Li, Jun …
