Phylogenetic analysis underpins modern evolutionary biology by constructing trees that illustrate the relationships among species and genes. Gene tree reconciliation extends these analyses by aligning ...
Just as bird watchers may use binoculars to add to their species lists, scientists interested in bird evolution may use computational tools to clarify avian lineages. Indeed, such tools have enabled ...

The team pieced together what’s known as a phylogenetic tree showing how different human species may have diverged from one another over the past 1 million years. The analysis suggests that the ...
Analysts argued that the uplift of the plateau and corresponding climate and geographical changes gave rise to many animal taxa adapted to open environments. These taxa later dispersed to Eurasia, ...
Orphanodendron is a taxonomically and geographically isolated South American genus of two species. When first described by Barneby and Grimes in 1990, the genus was placed in Leguminosae subfamily ...

A multitude of new genomic sequence data fills major gaps in the fruit fly tree of life, researchers report. A multitude of new genomic sequence data fills major gaps in the fruit fly tree of life, ...
Some ancient stony corals were able to survive extreme environmental changes, which suggests that some modern species could ...
