Abstract excerpt

Parallel evolution of similar morphologies in closely related lineages provides insight into the repeatability and predictability of evolution. In the genus Antirrhinum (snapdragons), as in other plants, a suite of morphological characters are associated with adaptation to alpine environments. We tested for parallel trait evolution in Antirrhinum by investigating phylogenetic relationships using restriction-site...
