Genomic structure, introgression, niche overlap, and morphological variation challenges species delimitation in Thymus sect. Mastichina

Diego Nieto‐Lugilde, José Carlos del Valle, Esther Maria Martin-Carretie, David Doblas, Billy Williams-Marland, María Ángeles Ortiz, Francisco Javier Jiménez‐López, Javier López Tirado, Francisco J. García-Cárdenas, Regina Berjano

This study shows that morphological and ecological traits do not clearly align with genetic structure in Thymus sect. Mastichina, suggesting cryptic lineages and the need for genomic data in species delimitation.
