Resolving the Speciation Patterns and Evolutionary History of the Intercontinental Disjunct Genus Corylus (Betulaceae) Using Genome-Wide SNPs

Resolving the Speciation Patterns and Evolutionary History of the Intercontinental Disjunct Genus Corylus (Betulaceae) Using Genome-Wide SNPs

Understanding the underlying mechanisms of species origin, divergence, and distribution patterns of the intercontinental disjunct taxa has long fascinated botanists. Based on 4,894 genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphism dataset, we present a molecular phylogenetic reconstruction of genus Corylus...
