Genomics of sorghum local adaptation to a parasitic plant
Host–parasite coevolution can maintain high levels of genetic diversity in traits involved in species interactions. In many systems, host traits exploited by parasites are constrained by use in other functions, leading to complex selective pressures across space and time. Here, we study genome-wide variation in the staple crop Sorghum bicolor...Bellis, Emily S. ; Kelly, Elizabeth A. ; Lorts, Claire M. ; Gao, Huirong ; DeLeo, Victoria L. …

Convergent evolution in calyptrate flowers of Syzygieae (Myrtaceae)
Abstract Shedding a fused perianth as a calyptra at anthesis is a trait that has evolved independently multiple times in angiosperm evolutionary history. However, calyptras do not correspond to homologous structures in all cases. Here, we describe calyptra development in the evolutionary context of Myrtaceae tribe Syzygieae. We use scanning...Vasconcelos, Thais N C ; Lucas, Eve J ; Conejero, Maria ; Giaretta, Augusto ; Prenner, Gerhard
