International Journal of Molecular Evolution and Biodiversity 2024, Vol.14, No.3, 105-107 http://ecoevopublisher.com/index.php/ijmeb 106 Figure 1 Assembly and structural evolution of the Stenogyne calaminthoides genome Figure 2 Phylogenetic relationships and admixture among Hawaiian mints and relatives 2 Insight into Research Findings The research conducted an in-depth exploration of the origins and evolutionary history of Hawaiian mints through genome size prediction, chromosome assembly quality assessment, repetitive sequence analysis, and phylogenetic analysis. The study indicates that geographical isolation and genetic drift in small populations played a major role in species formation, while local mixed mating may have also played a significant role in early lineage diversity. 3 Evaluation of the Research This research utilized high-quality genomic data and advanced analytical methods, providing valuable insights into the formation of island biodiversity. However, direct evidence for specific adaptive traits and niche differentiation remains insufficient, areas that future research could further explore.
