mSystems, 2021 Bacterial diversity and ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF) vary along environmental gradients. However, little is known about interconnections between EMF and taxonomic and phylogenetic diversities of rare and abundant bacteria.

Urban tolerance is phylogenetically constrained and mediated by pre‐adaptations in African bats
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 With increasing urbanization, particularly in developing countries, it is important to understand how local biota will respond to such landscape changes.

2b or not 2b? 2bRAD is an effective alternative to ddRAD for phylogenomics
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Restriction‐site‐associated DNA sequencing (RADseq) has become an accessible way to obtain genome‐wide data in the form of single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for phylogenetic inference.

Genomic Repeat Abundances Contain Phylogenetic Signal [PDF]
Systematic Biology, 2014 A large proportion of genomic information, particularly repetitive elements, is usually ignored when researchers are using next-generation sequencing. Here we demonstrate the usefulness of this repetitive fraction in phylogenetic analyses, utilizing comparative graph-based clustering of next-generation sequence reads, which results in abundance ...

Contradictory Phylogenetic Signals in the Laurasiatheria Anomaly Zone [PDF]
Genes, 2022 Relationships among laurasiatherian clades represent one of the most highly disputed topics in mammalian phylogeny. In this study, we attempt to disentangle laurasiatherian interordinal relationships using two independent genome-level approaches: (1) quantifying retrotransposon presence/absence patterns, and (2) comparisons of exon datasets at the ...

Phylogenetic Signal in Bone Microstructure of Sauropsids [PDF]
Systematic Biology, 2005 In spite of the fact that the potential usefulness of bone histology in systematics has been discussed for over one and a half centuries, the presence of a phylogenetic signal in the variation of histological characters has rarely been assessed.

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Climate change is a major driver of biodiversity decline with pervasive effects in biodiversity hotspots, where many endemic and threatened species thrive. However, the biological drivers of extinction susceptibility remain largely elusive, which hampers

Phylogeny-Related Variations in Venomics: A Test in a Subset of Habu Snakes (Protobothrops)
Toxins, 2023 We conducted a comparative analysis to unveil the divergence among venoms from a subset of Old World habu snakes (Protobothrops) in terms of venomic profiles and toxicological and enzymatic activities.

Sixty-One Volatiles Have Phylogenetic Signals Across Bacterial Domain and Fungal Kingdom
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Microorganisms are diverse in their genome sequences and subsequently in their encoded metabolic pathways, which enabled them to adapt to numerous environmental conditions.
