An alphataxonomic revision of extinct and extant razorbills (Aves, Alcidae) : a combined morphometric and phylogenetic approach / by N. Adam Smith and Julia A. Clarke ...
10 million sequences of COVID-19’s genomic code have now been organized into a phylogenetic tree in the UC Santa Cruz SARS-CoV-2 Browser, which is the largest tree of genomic sequences of a single ...
Birds are the most diverse land vertebrate on the planet, and now scientists have constructed a complete evolutionary tree of the 11,000 or so known species. This data came from hundreds of studies ...
This phylogenetic tree, built from genetic sequencing and fossil data, helps explain the relationships between different kinds of insects across millions of years of evolution.
Finally, birds and mammals belong to a richly branching part of the vertebrate phylogenetic tree, most of the branches being grouped as reptiles, while two equivalent branches are given unequal ...
The resulting phylogenetic estimate offers novel insights into the rapid radiation of modern birds and provides a taxon-rich backbone tree for future comparative studies.” ...
The understanding that gene trees are often in discord with each other and with the species trees that contain them has led researchers to methods that incorporate the inherent stochasticity of ...
