01
DOI 10.1002/ajb2.70277
Open DOI
Evolutionary history and taxonomy of the genus Zea
Premise: Taxonomic differentiation of teosinte species ( Zea spp.), the closest relatives of maize ( Z. mays ) is crucial for understanding their distribution, ecology, and evolutionary history. Resolving the taxonomic uncertainties is o...
02
DOI 10.1002/ajb2.70275
Open DOI
Species with U‐shaped geographic ranges as an opportunity to study early stages of divergence: The case of Ipomoea microsepala
Premise: The study of the early stages of divergence between populations is crucial to understanding how species and biodiversity originate. Geographic distributions that capture some aspects of the process of divergence, such as those t...
03
DOI 10.1002/ajb2.70280
Open DOI
The intensity and spatial dispersion of within‐plant herbivory drive trait‐specific resistance and tolerance in wild cotton
Premise: Herbivory induces complex plant defensive responses that may vary depending on the amount and spatial dispersion of damage on the plant; however, of the two variables, damage dispersion has received much less attention. To addre...
04
DOI 10.1002/ajb2.70279
Open DOI
Modeling diseased xylem networks
Vascular wilt pathogens induce xylem blockages that disrupt plant water transport, posing critical threats to agricultural productivity and food security. Key processes including xylem transport, vessel blockage, and pathogen spread with...
05
DOI 10.1002/ajb2.70278
Open DOI
Heterosis in crosses between remnant populations of the rare prairie forb Silene regia : Implications for restoration genetics
Premise: Calls to adopt seed‐sourcing strategies in biological restoration that preserve local adaptation while maximizing genetic variation (e.g., regional admixture provenancing) are increasingly common. Heterosis, the increased fitnes...
06
DOI 10.1002/ajb2.70276
Open DOI
Experimental manipulation of floral display size does not affect the distribution of paternal diversity in Silene dioica
Premise: Various factors, including pollinator visitation patterns and pollen carryover, govern paternal diversity and its distribution within maternal plants. Floral display size may have opposite effects on fruit‐ and plant‐level pater...

08
DOI 10.1002/ajb2.70272
Open DOI
Evolutionary relationship between organellar DNA inheritance patterns and traits of seed plants
Premise: In plants, organellar DNA is predominantly maternally inherited, but biparental and paternal inheritance have also been observed. Specific mechanisms, such as plastid exclusion during pollen mitosis or genome degradation, ensure...

DOI 10.1002/ajb2.70271
Open DOI
Palatability of geophyte underground storage organs partially explains their depth in the Cape Floristic Region, geophyte capital of the world
Premise: The soil depth of underground storage organs (USOs) of geophytes involves cost–benefit trade‐offs and may relate to USO age, size, and disturbances such as fire and herbivory. Yet determinants of USO depth are poorly studied. We...
