Demographic History Inference and the Polyploid Continuum

P. D. Blischak, M. Sajan, M. S. Barker, R. N. Gutenkunst

This paper develops diffusion models for polyploid demographic history and applies them to infer subgenome exchange rates in allotetraploid shepherds purse.

Phylogenetics of a Rapid, Continental Radiation: Diversification, Biogeography, and Circumscription of the Beardtongues (Penstemon; Plantaginaceae)

A. D. Wolfe, P. D. Blischak, L. Kubatko

This study investigates the diversification, biogeography, and taxonomic circumscription of Penstemon using phylogenetic analysis, finding that the genus originated in the Pliocene/Pleistocene and requires taxonomic revision.
