A complex scenario for the origin and diversification of Artemisia and Seriphidium , and subsequent parallel evolution of the two genera in the Old and New Worlds, was proposed by Ling [ 39 49 ] . The putative common ancestor to both "sister genera" was hypothesized to have existed in northern Asia, based on reported fossil pollen records that date the taxa to the early Oligocene or lower Eocene of the lower Tertiary, with speciation accompanied by migrations during the Tertiary and Quaternary periods - forced southward by the advancing polar ice sheets.
There's a name for that strategy: It's called diversification, and its purpose is to eliminate risk.
Duplicate gene evolution has most likely played a substantial role in both the rapid changes in organismal complexity apparent in deep evolutionary splits and the diversification of more closely related species.
I agree with Coyne and Orr that the theory and evidence for speciation by sexual selection is one of the most important advances in speciation studies, but it is important to recognize that the evidence consists mostly of correlations between diversification rates and indices of the likely strength of sexual selection; as Coyne and Orr note, there are no cases in which we understand just how sexual selection has caused speciation.
Brugia, Meloidogyne and Caenorhabditis represent three separate major nematode clades (III, IV and V, respectively) [ 53 ] . Possible explanations for the discrepancy in matches are that the Brugia clusters contain a large fraction of non-coding sequences (that is, 5' and 3' UTR, unspliced introns) or have undergone more rapid molecular evolution and diversification.
