Origin of African Physacanthus (Acanthaceae) via wide hybridization.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2013

Tripp Erin A, Fatimah Siti, Darbyshire Iain, McDade Lucinda A

Abstract excerpt

Gene flow between closely related species is a frequent phenomenon that is known to play important roles in organismal evolution. Less clear, however, is the importance of hybridization between distant relatives. We present molecular and morphological evidence that support origin of the plant genus Physacanthus via "wide hybridization" between members of two distantly related lineages in the large family...
