A genomic approach to the evolution, diversification and domestication of the genus Citrus by Borredá, Carles

“…This study suggests that the native current species diverged from an ancestral citrus in a relatively rapid radiation triggered by a global climate change, about 8 million years ago during the Late Miocene. Understanding the processes that shaped the evolution and subsequent domestication of the genus will prove useful for citrus breeders while providing novel insights in the field of plant genome evolution.…”

Evolutionary dynamics and biogeography of Musaceae reveal a correlation between the diversification of the banana family and the geological and climatic history of Southeast Asia by Janssens, S.B., Vandelook, F., Langhe, E. de, Verstraete, B., Smets, E., Vandenhouwe, I., Swennen, Rony L.

“…Musa species were only able to colonize the region east of Wallace's line after the availability of emergent land from the late Miocene onwards.…”

Amblyomma cajennense (Fabricius, 1787) (Acari: Ixodidae), the Cayenne tick: phylogeography and evidence for allopatric speciation by Beati, Lorenza, Nava, Santiago, Burkman, Erica J., Barros Battesti, Darci M., Labruna, Marcelo B., Guglielmone, Alberto, Cáceres, Abraham G., Guzman Cornejo, Carmen M., Léon, Renato, Durden, Lance A., Faccini, João L.H.

“…The six clades are deeply split and node dating indicates that they started diverging in the middle-late Miocene. Conclusions: Behavioral differences and the results of laboratory cross-breeding experiments had already indicated that A. cajennense might be a complex of distinct taxonomic units. …”

Reprogramming of Retrotransposon Activity during Speciation of the Genus Citrus. by Borredá, Carles, Pérez-Román, Estela, Ibanez, Victoria, Terol, Javier, Talón, Manuel

“…Speciation of the genus Citrus from a common ancestor has recently been established to begin 8Ma during the late Miocene, a period of major climatic alterations. Here, we report the changes in activity of Citrus LTR retrotransposons during the process of diversification that gave rise to the current Citrus species. …”

Reprogramming of Citrus Retrotransposons during their Early Speciation by Borredá, Carles, Pérez-Román, Estela, Ibanez, Victoria, Terol, Javier, Talón, Manuel

“…Speciation of the genus Citrus from a common ancestor has recently been established to begin approximately 8 Mya during the late Miocene, a period of major climatic alterations. In here, we report the changes in activity of Citrus LTR retrotransposons during the process of diversification that gave rise to the current citrus species. …”

Genome sequences and population genomics reveal climatic adaptation and genomic divergence between two closely related sweetgum species by Xu, Wu-Qin, Ren, Chao-Qian, Zhang, Xin-Yi, Comes, Hans-Peter, Liu, Xin-Hong, Li, Yin-Gang, Kettle, Christopher J., Jalonen, Riina, Gaisberger, Hannes, Ma, Ya-Zhen, Qiu, Ying-Xiong

“…We inferred a scenario of allopatric species divergence during the late Miocene, followed by secondary contact during the Holocene. …”

Genomics of the origin and evolution of Citrus by Wu, Guohong Albert, Terol, Javier, Ibanez, Victoria, López-García, Antonio, Pérez-Román, Estela, Borredá, Carles, Domingo, Concha, Tadeo, Francisco R., Carbonell-Caballero, Jose, Alonso, Roberto, Curk, Franck, Du, Dongliang, Ollitrault, Patrick, Roose, Mikeal L., Dopazo, Joaquín, Gmitter Jr., Frederick G., Rokhsar, Daniel S., Talón, Manuel

“…Here we describe ten natural citrus species, using genomic, phylogenetic and biogeographic analyses of 60 accessions representing diverse citrus germ plasms, and propose that citrus diversified during the late Miocene epoch through a rapid southeast Asian radiation that correlates with a marked weakening of the monsoons. …”

African suid genomes provide insights into the local adaptation to diverse African environments by Hai-Bing Xie, Chen Yan, Adeola, A.C., Kun Wang, Cui-Ping Huang, Ming-Min Xu, Qiang Qiu, Xue Yin, Chen-Yu Fan, Yun-Fei Ma, Ting-Ting Yin, Yun Gao, Jia-Kun Deng, Okeyoyin, A.O., Oluwole, O.O., Omotosho, O., Okoro, V.M.O., Omitogun, O.G., Dawuda, P.M., Olaogun, S.C., Nneji, L.M., Ayoola, A.O., Sanke, O.J., Luka, P.D., Okoth, Edward A., Lekolool, I., Mijele, D., Bishop, Richard P., Jianlin Han, Wen Wang, Min-Sheng Peng, Ya-Ping Zhang

“…Phylogenetic analysis showed that common warthog and red river hog diverged from their common ancestor around the Miocene/Pliocene boundary, putatively predating their entry into Africa. …”

Munroa argentina, a grass of the South American transtion zone, survived the Andean uplift, aridification and glaciations of the quaternary by Amarilla, Leandro, Anton, Ana Maria Ramona, Chiapella, Jorge Oscar, Manifesto, Maria Marcela, Angulo, Diego Francisco, Sosa, Victoria

“…The South American Transition Zone (SATZ) is a biogeographic area in which not only orogeny (Andes uplift) and climate events (aridification) since the mid-Miocene, but also Quaternary glaciation cycles had an important impact on the evolutionary history of the local flora. …”

Amblyomma parvum Aragão, 1908 (Acari: Ixodidae): Phylogeography and systematic considerations by Lado, Paula, Nava, Santiago, Labruna, Marcelo B., Szabó, Matías P.J., Durden, Lance A., Bermudez, Sergio, Montagna, Matteo, Sánchez Quirós, Ana C., Beati, Lorenza

“…Node dating placed the split between the Central American and the Brazilian-Argentinian lineages at approximately 5.8–4.9 Mya, just after the progressive replacement of the dry areas that occupied the northern part of South America by the Amazon Basin in the early-mid Miocene. This event might be the cause of fragmentation and putative speciation within the ancestral relatively xerophilic A. parvum population.…”

Do parapatric populations of the ticks Amblyomma tonelliae Nava, Beati & Labruna, 2014 and Amblyomma sculptum Berlese, 1888 (Acari: Ixodidae) hybridize? by Tarragona, Evelina Luisa, Lado, Paula, Beati, Lorenza, Mangold, Atilio Jose, Guglielmone, Alberto, Nava, Santiago

“…The results can be explained by the length of time the two lineages spent in allopatry since the middle of the Miocene and before their respective distribution range expanded again reaching a narrow secondary contact zone.…”
