The repeated evolution of herbicide resistance provides an excellent opportunity to study the genetic and physiological basis of the resistance phenotype and the evolutionary responses to human-mediated selection pressures. <i>Lolium multiflorum</i> is a ubiquitous weed that has evolved herbicide resistance repeatedly around the world in various cropping systems. We assembled and annotated a chromosome-scale genome for <i>L. multiflorum</i> and elucidated the genetic architecture of paraquat resistance by performing quantitative trait locus analysis, genome-wide association studies, genetic divergence analysis and transcriptome analyses from paraquat-resistant and -susceptible <i>L. multiflorum</i> plants. We identified two regions on chromosome 5 that were associated with paraquat resistance. These regions both showed evidence for positive selection among the resistant populations we sampled, but the effects of this selection on the genome differed, implying a complex evolutionary history. In addition, these regions contained candidate genes that encoded cellular transport functions, including a novel multidrug and toxin extrusion (MATE) protein and a cation transporter previously shown to interact with polyamines. Given that <i>L. multiflorum</i> is a weed and a cultivated crop species, the genomic resources generated will prove valuable to a wide spectrum of the plant science community. Our work contributes to a growing body of knowledge on the underlying evolutionary and ecological dynamics of rapid adaptation to strong anthropogenic selection pressure that could help initiate efforts to improve weed management practices in the long term for a more sustainable agriculture.</p>","PeriodicalId":210,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Ecology","volume":"34 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/mec.17775","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143909573","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its efficacy has been increasingly called into question in many taxonomic groups due to its inherent limitations, such as failing to account for phenotypic plasticity, ecologically driven variation (e.g., ecotypes), and parallel evolution. These factors often introduce ambiguity or misleading similarities, thereby obscuring the true evolutionary relationships among taxa, particularly in the context of species delimitation. In the present study, we employ an integrated methodology that combines quantitative morphological analyses, whole-genome data, and ecological measurements to resolve the species boundaries of two morphologically similar roses, Rosa sericea and Rosa hugonis, which have long been considered as two distinct species but lack clear morphological boundaries. Our findings reveal that the unbiased analysis of morphological data based on a large and representative sample size was insufficient to identify effective diagnostic traits. However, when complemented with genome-wide population-level sequencing data or integrated with geographic and ecological niche assessments, the delineation of species boundaries was significantly improved. Furthermore, ecological data provide additional insight into the abiotic factors driving interspecific and intraspecific divergence. By integrating multiple lines of evidence-spanning genomic (intrinsic) and phenotypic (extrinsic) traits-and incorporating the interaction between species and their environments, species boundaries can be delineated with greater confidence. A well-defined species can thus be established through the mutual corroboration of diverse datasets, thereby ensuring a more rigorous and comprehensive taxonomic framework.</p>","PeriodicalId":210,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Ecology","volume":" ","pages":"e17779"},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143961815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, few studies investigate the timescale of DNAm shifts. Thus, it is uncertain whether DNAm can change on timescales relevant for rapid phenotypic shifts, such as during the expression of short-term behavioural plasticity. DNAm could be especially reactive in the brain, potentially increasing its relevance for behavioural plasticity. Most research investigating neural changes in methylation has been conducted in mammalian systems, on isolated individuals, and using stressors that are less ecologically relevant, reducing their generalisability to other natural systems. We exposed pairs of male and female Trinidadian guppies (<i>Poecilia reticulata</i>) to alarm cue, conspecific skin extract that reliably induces anti-predator behaviour, or a control cue. Whole-genome bisulphite sequencing on whole brains at various time points following cue exposure (0.5, 1, 4, 24, and 72 h) allowed us to uncover the timescale of neural DNAm responses. Males and females both showed rapid shifts in DNAm in as little as 0.5 h. However, males and females differed in the time course of their responses: both sexes showed a peak in the number of loci showing significant responses at 4 h, but males showed an additional peak at 72 h. We suggest that this finding could be due to the differing longer-term plastic responses between the sexes. This study shows that DNAm can be rapidly induced by an ecologically relevant stressor in fish and suggests that DNAm could be involved in short-term behavioural plasticity.</p>","PeriodicalId":210,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Ecology","volume":"34 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/mec.17774","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143909472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These disturbances can have a profound effect on roadside soil properties and vegetation, typically favouring fast-growing and ruderal species. However, their effect on plant-associated fungal communities and plant-fungal interactions remains largely unknown. In this study, we examined the changes in root-associated fungal communities as well as plant-fungal and fungal-fungal co-occurrence networks along mountain roads from four biogeographical regions. We found that roadsides consistently altered plant and fungal community composition, generally favouring arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and putative plant pathogens at the expense of ectomycorrhizal fungi. Moreover, roadsides consistently reduced the complexity of plant-fungal and fungal-fungal co-occurrence networks (with 66%-95% and 40%-94% reduction in total edge density, respectively), even though the richness of fungal communities was not reduced and many of the naturally occurring highly connected taxa were still present. Our findings suggest that altered and transient conditions in the roadsides may favour more generalist symbionts like AMF and pathogens with low fidelity for particular hosts as opposed to surrounding natural vegetation which is dominated by symbionts with higher specificity for the host (like ectomycorrhizal fungi). We conclude that road disturbance may have a consistent negative imprint on connectivity between plants and fungi; a consequence that deserves attention as it could render mountain roadside systems unstable and vulnerable to further pressures such as climate change and invasive species.</p>","PeriodicalId":210,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Ecology","volume":" ","pages":"e17771"},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143960414","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For hundreds of years, hop has undergone intense artificial selection, with over 250 cultivated varieties being developed worldwide, all displaying differences in key characteristics such as bitter acid concentrations, flavour and aroma profiles, changes in photoperiod, growth, and pathogen/pest resistances. Previous studies have individually explored differences between cultivars, aiming to identify markers that can quickly and cost-effectively differentiate between cultivars. However, little is known about their evolutionary history and the variability in their associated rhizospheric microbial communities. Coupling phenotypic, genomic, and soil metagenomic data, our study explores the global population structure and domestication history of 98 hop cultivars. We assessed differences in growth rates, rates of viral infection, usage of dissolvable nitrogen, and soil microbial community compositions between US and non-US based cultivars. Our study revealed that worldwide hop cultivars cluster into four subpopulations: Central European, English, and American ancestry as previously reported, and one new group, the Nobles, revealing further substructure amongst Central European cultivars. Modelling the evolutionary history of domesticated hop reveals divergence of the common ancestors of modern US cultivars around 2800 years before present (ybp), and more recent divergences with gene flow across English, Central European, and Noble cultivars, reconciled with key events in human history and migrations. Furthermore, cultivars of US origin were shown to overall outperform non-US cultivars in both growth rates and usage of dissolvable nitrogen and display novel microbial composition under common-garden settings in the United States.</p>","PeriodicalId":210,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Ecology","volume":" ","pages":"e17769"},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143952990","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To shed light on continental-scale patterns of African biogeography and diversification, we investigated the historical demography of a bird with a continent-wide distribution in Sub-Saharan Africa, the Yellow-Rumped Tinkerbird, <i>Pogoniulus bilineatus</i>. We sampled populations from across the continent and, using genomic data, assessed genetic diversity, structure, and differentiation, reconstructed the phylogeny, and performed alternative demographic model selection between neighbouring clade pairs. We uncovered substantial genetic structure and differentiation patterns which corroborated the phylogenetic topology. Structure was chiefly influenced by the arid corridor, a postulated biogeographical barrier in Sub-Saharan Africa. Moreover, peak genetic diversities coincided with postulated refugial areas while demographic reconstructions between genetic lineages supported allopatric models consistent with the Pleistocene Forest Refuge hypothesis. However, within lineages, divergence with gene flow was supported. Continent-wide patterns of diversification involve an integration of both allopatric and parapatric mechanisms, with a role for both periods of divergence in isolation and across ecological gradients.

We used total RNA sequencing and metatranscriptomic analysis to characterise the infectome of lesions and cloacal swabs from nine kākāpō affected with exudative cloacitis, and compared this to cloacal swabs from 45 non-diseased kākāpō.

The genetic diversity observed in both S. gallolyticus and E. faecalis among diseased kākāpō suggests that these bacteria originate from exogenous sources rather than from kākāpō-to-kākāpō transmission. The presence of extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC)-associated virulence factors in the diseased kākāpō population suggests that E. coli may play a critical role in disease progression by facilitating iron acquisition and causing DNA damage in host cells, possibly in association with E. faecalis. No avian viral, fungal nor other parasitic species were identified. These results, combined with the consistent presence of one E. coli gnd sequence type across multiple diseased birds, suggest that this species may be the primary cause of exudative cloacitis.

However, the extent to which mtDNA introgression corresponds to nuDNA introgression varies. Here, we investigated historical and recent introgression in the <i>Gehyra nana-occidentalis</i> clade, a complex group of Australian geckos with documented cases of mitonuclear discordance suggestive of repeated mtDNA introgression. We hypothesised that mitonuclear discordance in this clade reflects mtDNA introgression with substantial nuclear introgression. Despite evidence of repeated mtDNA introgression, however, we found little to no evidence of historical nuDNA introgression using exon capture and genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data. We also found no evidence of gene flow at modern contact zones and detected only a single early generation hybrid. Unsurprisingly, given these results, we found no evidence of transgressive, intermediate, or more variable morphological phenotypes in taxa with introgressed mtDNA. These findings suggest that hybridisation in this system has, at least in some cases, resulted in repeated mitochondrial introgression with little or no nuclear introgression.
