Convergent evolution of plant prickles is drivenby repeated gene co-option over deep time

J. W. Satterlee, D. Alonso, P. Gramazio, K. M. Jenike, J. He, A. Arrones, G. Villanueva, M. Plazas, S. Ramakrishnan, M. Benoit, I. Gentile, A. Hendelman, H. Shohat, B. Fitzgerald, G. M. Robitaille, , Z. B. Lippman

The paper investigates convergent evolution of plant prickles, finding that mutations in a cytokinin gene repeatedly cause prickle loss across species.

Morphological trait evolution in Solanum (Solanaceae): evolutionary lability of key taxonomic characters

R. Hilgenhof, E. Gagnon, S. Knapp, X. Aubriot, E. Tepe, L. Bohs, L. Giacomin, Y. Gouvea, C. Martine, A. Orejuela, C. I. Orozco, I. E. Peralta, T. Sarkinen

This study maps the evolution of 25 morphological traits across Solanum species, revealing high lability in traits like growth form and glandular trichomes, and identifying convergent traits useful for classification.

Phylogenomic discordance suggests polytomies along the backbone of the large genus Solanum

E. Gagnon, R. Hilgenhof, A. Orejuela, A. McDonnell, G. Sablok, X. Aubriot, L. Giacomin, Y. Gouvea, T. Bragionis, J. R. Stehmann, L. Bohs, S. Dodsworth, C. T. Martine, P. Poczai, S. Knapp, T. Särkinen

The paper investigates gene-tree discordance in Solanum, finding polytomies along its backbone due to rapid diversification and incomplete lineage sorting.
