The genomic outcomes of hybridization vary over time within a monkeyflower radiation

This study examines how hybridization impacts genomes at different stages of speciation in monkeyflowers, finding that selection against recent introgression is stronger than against ancient introgression.

Inheritance of somatic mutations can affect fitness in monkeyflowers

The paper investigates the fitness effects of inherited somatic mutations in Mimulus aurantiacus through autogamy and geitonogamy, finding increased fecundity and impacts on drought tolerance, survival, and biomass.

Modulation of photosystem II heterogeneity and stomatal functioning contribute to sustaining photochemistry and photoprotection in mangroves exposed to a cold wave

This study investigates how PSII heterogeneity and stomatal functioning help mangroves withstand cold waves, finding that cold-tolerant species show less impact due to local adaptations.
