Societal Impact Statement Crop wild relatives (CWR) are plant taxa closely related to crops and a source of high genetic diversity that can help adapt the impacts global change, particularly meet increasing consumer demand in face climate crisis. CWR provide vital ecosystem services increasingly important for food nutrition security sustainable resilient agriculture. They therefore major biological, social, cultural economic importance. Assessing extinction risk is essential prioritise situ...
Abstract Crop wild relatives (CWR) intra- and interspecific diversity is essential for crop breeding food security. However, intraspecific genetic diversity, which central given the idiosyncratic threats to species in landscapes, usually not considered planning frameworks. Here, we introduce an approach develop proxies of differentiation identify conservation areas, applying systematic tools that produce hierarchical prioritizations landscape. It accounts for: (i) evolutionary processes,...
Abstract Several Mesoamerican crops constitute wild‐to‐domesticated complexes generated by multiple initial domestication events, and continuous gene flow among crop populations between these their wild relatives. It has been suggested that the of cotton ( Gossypium hirsutum ) started in northwest Yucatán Peninsula, from where it spread to other regions inside outside Mexico. We tested this hypothesis assembling chloroplast genomes 23 wild, landraces, breeding lines (transgene‐introgressed...

Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is one of the most interesting evolutionary events in Eukaryotic life. It has been proven that fungi share genes or clusters with other organisms such as plants, animals, fungi. The amatoxins biosynthesis metabolic pathway produces lethal bicyclic peptides responsible for deaths by mushroom poisoning. assumed involved passed from Galerina and Lepiota to Amanita secc. Phalloidae species HGT. We used de novo genome assembling mining homologous amanitin among...
