  • Lutzoni, Francois; Nowak, Michael; Alfaro, Michael; Reeb, Valerie; Miadlikowska, Jolanta; Krug, Michael; Arnold, Elizabeth; Lewis, Louise A.; Swofford, David; Hibbett, David S.; Hilu, Khidir; James, Timothy Y.; Quandt, Dietmar; Magallon, Susana (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)
    Interactions between fungi and plants, including parasitism, mutualism, and saprotrophy, have been invoked as key to their respective macroevolutionary success. Here we evaluate the origins of plant-fungal symbioses and ...
  • Struck, Torsten H; Feder, Jeffrey L.; Bendiksby, Mika; Birkeland, Siri; Cerca, Jose; Gusarov, Vladimir; Kistenich, Sonja; Larsson, Karl-Henrik; Liow, Lee Hsiang; Nowak, Michael; Stedje, Brita; Bachmann, Lutz; Dimitrov, Dimitar (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / SubmittedVersion, 2018)
    Cryptic species could represent a substantial fraction of biodiversity. However, inconsistent definitions and taxonomic treatment of cryptic species prevent informed estimates of their contribution to biodiversity and ...
  • Pedersen, Anne Tiril Myhre; Nowak, Michael; Brysting, Anne Krag; Elven, Reidar; Bjora, Charlotte S (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2016)
    Hybridization is frequent in the large and ecologically significant genus Carex (Cyperaceae). In four important sections of the northern regions (Ceratocystis, Glareosae, Phacocystis and Vesicariae), the frequent occurrence ...
  • Cerca, José; Colon, Angel G. Rivera; Ferreira, Mafalda S.; Ravinet, Mark; Nowak, Michael; Catchen, Julian M.; Struck, Torsten H (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)
    Morphologically similar species, that is cryptic species, may be similar or quasi-similar owing to the deceleration of morphological evolution and stasis. While the factors underlying the deceleration of morphological ...
  • de Vos, Jurriaan M.; Keller, Barbara; Zhang, Li-Rui; Nowak, Michael; Conti, Elena (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)
    Premise of research. Self-compatibility is a requirement for reproductive assurance via selfing and may therefore be beneficial in environments with infrequent or unpredictable pollinator service. However, self-compatible ...
  • Birkeland, Siri; Gustafsson, A Lovisa S; Brysting, Anne Krag; Brochmann, Christian; Nowak, Michael (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)
    Abstract Extreme environments offer powerful opportunities to study how different organisms have adapted to similar selection pressures at the molecular level. Arctic plants have adapted to some of the coldest ...
  • Konecna, Veronika; Nowak, Michael; Kolár, Filip (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)
    The island-like distribution of subalpine habitats across mountain ranges can trigger the parallel evolution of locally adapted ecotypes. Such naturally replicated scenarios allow testing hypotheses on how elevational ...
  • Nowak, Michael; Pedersen, Anne Tiril Myhre; Brysting, Anne Krag; Schrøder-Nielsen, Audun; Elven, Reidar; Bjorå, Charlotte Sletten (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)
    Abstract Taxonomists have proposed numerous hybrid species in plants, but to gain a better understanding of the role that hybridization may play in plant diversification, such taxonomic hypotheses must be tested ...
  • Cerca, José; Petersen, Bent; Lazaro-Guevara, José Miguel; Rivera-Colón, Angel G.; Birkeland, Siri; Vizueta, Joel; Li, Siyu; Li, Qionghou; Loureiro, João; Kosawang, Chatchai; Jaramillo Díaz, Patricia; Rivas-Torres, Gonzalo; Fernández-Mazuecos, Mario; Vargas, Pablo; McCauley, Ross; Petersen, Gitte; Santos-Bay, Luisa; Wales, Nathan; Catchen, Julian M.; Machado, Daniel; Nowak, Michael; Suh, Alexander; Sinha, Neelima R.; Rostgaard Nielsen, Lene; Seberg, Ole; Gilbert, Marcus Thomas Pius; Leebens-Mack, James H.; Rieseberg, Loren H.; Martin, Michael David (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)
    Abstract The repeated, rapid and often pronounced patterns of evolutionary divergence observed in insular plants, or the ‘plant island syndrome’, include changes in leaf phenotypes, growth, as well as the acquisition of a ...
  • Hou, Yan; Nowak, Michael; Mirre, Virginia; Bjorå, Charlotte Sletten; Brochmann, Christian; Popp, Magnus (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2015)
    Restriction-site associated DNA sequencing (RAD-seq) has recently become an important method to generate genome-wide molecular data for species delimitation, phylogeography, and population genetic studies. However, very ...
