TL;DR: Asexual Reproduction in Infectious Diseases and the Elusive Clone - In Search of Its True Nature and Identity.

Single cytotype areas in autopolyploid Plantago media L.
TL;DR: The Pyrenean distribution is best explained by colonization by cytotypes from different origins during the late glacial period followed by secondary contact, and reduced fitness of hybrid cytotypes may account for the existence of large areas with a single cytotypes in allopolyploid species in general.

Available ex situ germplasm of the potential rubber crop Taraxacum koksaghyz belongs to a poor rubber producer, T. brevicorniculatum (Compositae–Crepidinae)
TL;DR: Morphological examination and genetic analyses demonstrated that all available ex situ germplasm collections of T. koksaghyz belonged to a single triploid apomictic clone that was misidentified as T. brevicorniculatum, a species commonly co-occurring with wild populations of the Russian dandelion.

Pollinating fig wasps: genetic consequences of island recolonization.
Monika Zavodna,Paul Arens,Peter J. van Dijk,Tukirin Partomihardjo,Ben Vosman,Jos M. M. Van Damme +5 more
TL;DR: Surprisingly, mainland populations of the fig waSPS may be more genetically isolated than the islands, as gene flow between populations on the Javan mainland differed between the two wasp species.

Fine mapping of Restorer-of-fertility in pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) identified a candidate gene encoding a pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR)-containing protein.
Yeong Deuk Jo,Yeaseong Ha,Joung Ho Lee,Minkyu Park,Alex C. Bergsma,Hong‑Il Choi,Sandra Goritschnig,Bjorn Kloosterman,Peter J. van Dijk,Doil Choi,Byoung-Cheorl Kang +10 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that CaPPR6 is a strong candidate for the Rf gene in pepper, a typical Rf-like (RFL) gene reported to have undergone diversifying selection during evolution.
