Methods, such as the distance Wagner procedure, that construct phylogenetic trees by fitting branch lengths to genetic distance matrices result in ancestral taxa that cannot exist in allele frequency ...

A phylogenetic analysis of modern pochards (Aythyini) was performed using 99 characters of the skeleton, trachea, natal plumage, and definitive integument. Three shortest trees were found (length = ...

When COVID-19 arrived, researchers tried to build evolutionary family trees—known as phylogenetic trees—of the virus. These ...

A new method from EMBL-EBI and collaborators offers fast, easy-to-interpret confidence scores for phylogenetic trees for pandemic preparedness ...

Creating a family tree that dates back more than 400 million years and details the evolution of the most diverse group of animals on the planet is no easy feat, but one ambitious group of scientists ...
