Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Hybrid sterility evolved quickly and faster in annuals than perennials.
- Observation Helianthus bolanderi was not supported as a hybrid-origin species.
- Observation Helianthus bolanderi was likely not separate from H. exilis.
- Observation Introgression with invading H. annuus was found.
- Observation Gene flow mainly entered the invading species.
- Observation Hybrid species genome composition was even or biased toward H. petiolaris.
- Observation Hybrid genomes were more compositionally similar than expected by chance.
- Observation Genetic distance suggested the hybrid species were older than previously thought.
- Observation The hybrid species did not appear fully stabilized.
- Observation H. anomalus and H. deserticola may share a common origin.
