Genomic ancestry predicts rapid responses to drought across spatiotemporal scales

This study shows that genomic ancestry influences drought responses in Amaranthus tuberculatus, with allele frequency changes linked to climate fluctuations over time.

The evolution of separate sexes in waterhemp is associated with surprising chromosomal diversity and complexity

This study investigates the genetic basis of sex determination in waterhemp, revealing complex chromosomal diversity and phenotypic variability associated with the transition to dioecy.

Admixture with cultivated sunflower likely facilitated establishment and spread of wild sunflower (H. annuus) in Argentina

The paper investigates the invasion history of wild sunflower in Argentina, finding that admixture with cultivated sunflower and genomic selection contributed to its establishment and spread.
