Multiple bursts of speciation in Madagascar's endangered lemurs

This study investigates the speciation patterns in lemurs, revealing multiple diversification bursts and high genomic introgression rates, which contribute to their diversity and have implications for conservation.

Biogeography and the evolution of acoustic communication in the polyploid North American gray treefrog complex

This study examines the biogeography and acoustic communication evolution in polyploid North American gray treefrogs, finding glacial influences on speciation and acoustic signal divergence.

Gene flow in phylogenomics: Sequence capture resolves species limits and biogeography of Afromontane forest endemic frogs from the Cameroon Highlands

This study uses genomic sequence capture to resolve species boundaries and biogeography of six mtDNA lineages in Cameroon Highlands frogs, identifying a new species and detecting hybridization patterns.

The Perfect Storm: Gene Tree Estimation Error, Incomplete Lineage Sorting, and Ancient Gene Flow Explain the Most Recalcitrant Ancient Angiosperm Clade, Malpighiales

This study investigates the factors causing unresolved phylogenetic relationships in Malpighiales, finding that gene tree heterogeneity arises from incomplete lineage sorting, gene tree estimation error, and ancient gene flow.

Whole genome duplication potentiates inter-specific hybridisation and niche shifts in Australian burrowing frogs Neobatrachus

This study investigates polyploidy in Neobatrachus frogs, finding that tetraploids have higher genetic diversity and may avoid climate-induced habitat loss compared to diploids.

Resolving Rapid Radiations Within Angiosperm Families Using Anchored Phylogenomics

The paper uses anchored phylogenomics to resolve rapid radiations in angiosperms, showing that nuclear data outperforms plastid and nrDNA markers in resolving short backbone internodes.
