Genetic diversity of wild papaya
In order to determine whether genetic architecture stems from pre-Pleistocene events or refugia, Chávez-Pesqueira and Núñez-Farfán assess genetic diversity and population dynamics of 19 populations of wild papaya...
High molecular diversity in rare European Sorbus domestica
Unexpectedly high levels of molecular diversity are found within populations of Sorbus domestica, irrespective of their location.
Do pollinators isolate new species of plants?
It’s time for the last paper of the pollinator-driven speciation week. The previous posts have examined how pollinators can select and cause diversity among plants but, if they’re all the same species, could...

Diversification in Hawaiian Dubautia laxa
The Hawaiian silversword alliance (Asteraceae) is one the best examples of a plant adaptive radiation, exhibiting extensive morphological and ecological diversity. Using subspecies of Dubautia laxa as an example...
