Using termite and cockroach genomes, researchers built phylogenetic trees from transposons, paving a new way to differentiate ...

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 ...

The application of Bayesian methods to large-scale phylogenetics problems is increasingly limited by computational issues, motivating the development of methods that can complement existing Markov ...

Aim Phylogenetic trees provide a framework for understanding the evolution of features (properties, characters or traits) of species, where closely related species share many common or similar ...

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 ...

The new model focuses on phylogenetic diversity, which is very different from counting species, today's standard measure of biodiversity. The same number of species (three blue circles) can have a ...
