A proposed tree groups two plant species by red fruit. Genomic data place one red-fruited species with a yellow-fruited species, but a fruit-color gene tree supports the red-fruited pair. Which evidence best supports revising the species tree?
A
Genome-wide markers and shared derived seed-coat traits support the red-yellow pair, while fruit-color genes show signatures of parallel selection.
B
The red-fruited species are both eaten by the same bird disperser.
C
The yellow-fruited species has lower pigment concentration.
D
Fruit color is visible without a microscope.
