Mountain gordlinia 'Sweet Tea' is a unique hybrid that boasts large, white flowers with golden centers. The blooms emit an ...

In Cupressaceae, intergeneric comparisons may also be feasible. Because the ITS region is relatively long, it may also permit population-level phylogenetic analysis in many non-flowering seed plants.

Search our Species Guide by entering the first few characters of the species' name in the box below. You can search by English or scientific name and choose between either IOC or Clements as the ...

Considering that few phylogenetic studies have included more than one species of Bromelia, the objectives of this study were to carry out a phylogenetic analysis for the genus, seeking to evaluate its ...

Streptomycetes are Gram-positive mycelial bacteria, which synthesize a wide range of natural products including over two-thirds of the currently available antibiotics. However, metabolic engineering ...

While these intergeneric hybrids are extremely uncommon in natural settings, they’ve been confirmed through genetic testing. These hybridization events provide fascinating insights into the ...

Introgressive hybridization of pairs of species can affect the evolution of their populations in several important ways. More rarely, three species form an interbreeding complex (triad), but little is ...

Genome mining of a Streptomyces strain collected in Tanzania revealed its potential to produce a novel siderophore. Heterologous expression of the corresponding biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) in S.

A study in Science China Life Sciences reveals how hybrid fish maintain fertility despite genomic divergence. By analyzing structural variations, gene expression, and chromatin accessibility in ...
