Older Lineages of Vascular Plants in Wetlands Dominate in Habitats That Are More Ubiquitous Across the Region: A Case Study in Southern Africa by E. J. J. Sieben, A. MacDonald, Ş. Procheş, S. Ramdhani, A. Subbiah, A. M. Muasya

“…We hypothesize that recently evolved wetland lineages dominate more challenging or novel wetland environments, whereas older lineages tend to dominate widespread and more stable wetland types, likely due to greater dispersal capabilities, as wetland habitats are geologically transient. …”

Suppression of Plant Resistance May Be a Common Trait Among Adapted Herbivores by Jéssica Teodoro‐Paulo, Carlos Fernandes, Lin Dong, Sara Magalhães, Alison B. Duncan, Juan M. Alba, Merijn R. Kant

“…Our results suggest that suppression may be rare only at the beginning of an herbivore's adaptive trajectory after colonization of a novel host but may rapidly become common due to natural selection. This suggests the possibility that suppression potentially represents a prevalent phenotype among host‐adapted herbivores and, consequently, among pests.…”
