Extensive gene tree discordance and hemiplasy shaped the genomes of North American columnar cacti

Convergent and parallel evolution (homoplasy) is widespread in the tree of life and can obscure evidence about phylogenetic relationships. Homoplasy can be elevated in genomes because individual loci may have independent evolutionary histories different from the species history. We sequenced the gen...
