TL;DR: Mangrove genomes inform about their past evolutionary success as well as portend a possibly difficult future in a time of global climate change.
Speciation with gene flow via cycles of isolation and migration: insights from multiple mangrove taxa
Ziwen He,Xinnian Li,Ming Yang,Xinfeng Wang,Cairong Zhong,Norman C. Duke,Chung-I Wu,Chung-I Wu,Chung-I Wu,Suhua Shi +9 more
TL;DR: The MIM mechanism, by relaxing the condition of no gene flow, can promote speciation in many more geographical features than strict allopatry can, and is also efficient, potentially yielding mn (m > 1) species after n cycles.
Speciation with gene flow via cycles of isolation and migration: Insights from multiple mangrove taxa

TL;DR: By permitting intermittent gene flow during speciation, MIM can potentially generate species at an exponential rate, thus combining speciation and biodiversity in a unified framework.

TL;DR: In a survey of two closely related mangrove species on the coasts of the western Pacific and Indian oceans, it is found that the genomes are well delineated in allopatry, echoing their morphological and ecological divergence.
Genomic islets in a sea of introgressions between sympatric species

TL;DR: The sympatric setting in Daintree offers a rare opportunity to recognize the genic nature of species, definable by small genomic islets harboring genes pertaining to speciation, as well as suggesting that each species must have evolved many differentially-adaptive genes that contribute to speciating.
