This study investigates the evolutionary history of wild potatoes in the Petota clade, revealing recurrent hybridization, cytonuclear discordance, and chloroplast capture affecting species boundaries.

The paper identifies and characterizes cereal remains from 19th-century furniture using genome skimming and DNA analysis, revealing it as a Central European rye at the transition between landrace and improved variety.

A 1,474-species 10-marker phylogeny and a 110-taxon Angiosperms353 phylogenomic dataset support a rank-free PhyloCode classification defining 38 clades across Solanaceae, including 16 infrageneric clades in Solanum.

Morphometric and micro-CT analysis of 110 fossil and 354 extant Solanaceae seeds identifies 10 specimen-backed fossil species, including four new genera and a fossilized elaiosome, spanning Eocene to Holocene deposits.

This study estimates the origin of nightshade lineages using a total evidence timetree analysis, finding the family originated around 98 Mya, with major splits three times older than previous estimates.

This study identifies structurally diverse acylsugars in Physalis fruits, revealing their abundance and biosynthetic mechanisms across species.
