Biological evolution has woven an intricate tapestry of life through time, a pattern we are just beginning to fully ...

Nematode taxonomy has long relied on traditional morphological criteria; however, the advent of molecular techniques has revolutionised species identification and phylogenetic analysis. Integrative ...

Phylogenetics and molecular evolution lie at the heart of understanding the origins and diversification of life. By constructing phylogenetic trees, scientists map the evolutionary relationships ...

The phylogenetic bootstrap is the most commonly used method for assessing statistical confidence in estimated phylogenies by non-Bayesian methods such as maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood (ML).

Abstract The Menispermaceae, a largely tropical family of dioecious and predominantly climbing plants, have been the subject of various molecular studies that confirmed its monophyly and the para- and ...
