Evolutionary biology High‑importance

	Evolutionary biology portal This article is part of WikiProject Evolutionary biology, an attempt at building a useful set of articles on evolutionary biology and its associated subfields such as population genetics, quantitative genetics, molecular evolution, phylogenetics, and evolutionary developmental biology. It is distinct from the WikiProject Tree of Life in that it attempts to cover patterns, process and theory rather than systematics and taxonomy. If you would like to participate, there are some suggestions on this page (see also Wikipedia:Contributing FAQ for more information) or visit WikiProject Evolutionary biologyEvolutionary biologyWikipedia:WikiProject Evolutionary biologyTemplate:WikiProject Evolutionary biologyEvolutionary biology articles

Unsubstantiated claim

There is an image in this wiki article with a caption that makes an unsubstantiated claim (see below). In the book Trilliums by Frederick and Roberta Case, we find the following contradictory claim: "No hybrids of Trillium grandiflorum have ever been documented."^[1] This is the same Frederick Case who authored the Trilliums section in Flora of North America.^[2] I believe the burden of proof is on the claim in the wiki article: it should be removed unless it can be substantiated.

A sterile hybrid between Trillium cernuum and T. grandiflorum

Feedbacks

This page is very excellent to understand the hybridization of biology. The citation based sentences are great, and very clear to understand with the clear grammars. This could be very useful for non science readers too. Pictures are relevant too. Only comment is, it could be more informative if there could be separate sections for animals and plants (or even multiple other small sections). Overall, this is a really nice page for understanding hybridization concept and examples. Karkataceace (talk) 16:45, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
