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 ...
Genomic data have had a profound impact on nearly every biological discipline. In systematics and phylogenetics, the thousands of loci that are now being sequenced can be analyzed under the ...
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 skull is one of two partially mineralized specimens unearthed in 1989 and 1990 in an area known as Yunxian in Shiyan, ...
A team from the University of Illinois has uncovered surprising evolutionary links between the genetic code and tiny protein ...
Researchers at Ruhr University Bochum developed a quartet-based deep learning method that embeds phylogenetic tree structures into neural networks. Tested on bacterial 16S rRNA data, it enables AI to ...
