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 organisms ...

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 ...

An analysis of millions of SARS-CoV-2 genomes finds that recombination of the virus is uncommon, but when it occurs, it is most often in the spike protein region, the area which allows the virus to ...

Phylogenetic tree shape varies as the evolutionary processes affecting a clade change over time. In this study, we examined an empirical phylogeny of fossil tetrapods during several time intervals, ...

Phylogeny is the representation of the evolutionary history and relationships between groups of organisms. The results are represented in a phylogenetic tree that provides a visual output of ...

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 ...
