Multilocus perspectives on the monophyly and phylogeny of the order Charadriiformes (Aves)
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2007 Background The phylogeny of shorebirds (Aves: Charadriiformes) and their putative sister groups was reconstructed using approximately 5 kilobases of data from three nuclear loci and two mitochondrial genes, and compared to that based on two other nuclear

A supertree approach to shorebird phylogeny
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2004 Background Order Charadriiformes (shorebirds) is an ideal model group in which to study a wide range of behavioural, ecological and macroevolutionary processes across species. However, comparative studies depend on phylogeny to control for the effects of
