Resolving Marine–Freshwater Transitions by Diatoms Through a Fog of Gene Tree Discordance

Abstract. Despite the obstacles facing marine colonists, most lineages of aquatic organisms have colonized and diversified in freshwaters repeatedly. These tran

Interesting trivia: I think this is the first diatom paper published in Sys Biol since 1992. The first issue after the transition from Sys Zool to Sys Biol reviewed a diatom book, and the second issue had a diatom on the cover. We started so strong!
