The Cornell Lab of Ornithology today announced the release of a new online tool for studying biodiversity and the ...

Progress and perspectives of the deep non-bilaterian phylogeny, with focus on sponges (Phylum Porifera) / Gert Wörheide, Tetyana Nosenko, Fabian Schreiber, and Burkhard Morgenstern -- Phylogenetics ...

The field of molecular epidemiology has brought a transformative perspective to the study of viral infections by integrating molecular data and phylogenetic ...

A new computational tool improves the analysis of genetic data, making it easier and faster to study the evolutionary relationships between species. A new computational tool improves the analysis of ...

Biologists will be able to reconstruct the process of evolution, determine relationships between species and build phylogenetic trees with greater accuracy thanks to a new method for identifying ...

Aim: We expand on community phylogenetic approaches to Darwin's Naturalization Conundrum by considering phylogenetic scale, comprised of phylogenetic grain and extent. We assess relatedness between ...

Read me first! -- Tutorial : create a tree! -- Acquiring and aligning the sequences -- pt. 1. Major methods for estimating phylogenetic trees. Neighbor-joining trees -- Drawing phylogenetic trees -- ...

Sitting at his desk in London, zoologist Max Telford of University College London only has a couple of trees outside his window and an apple on his desk as examples of diverse living things. But up ...

CRISPR technology has enabled cell lineage tracing for complex multicellular organisms through insertion-deletion mutations of synthetic genomic barcodes during organismal development. To reconstruct ...

In biology, phylogenetic trees represent the evolutionary history and diversification of species -- the ''family tree'' of Life. Phylogenetic trees not only describe the evolution of a group of ...
