Phylogenomics and the flowering plant tree of life

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, 2022
AbstractThe advances accelerated by next‐generation sequencing and long‐read sequencing technologies continue to provide an impetus for plant phylogenetic study. In the past decade, a large number of phylogenetic studies adopting hundreds to thousands of genes across a wealth of clades have emerged and ushered plant phylogenetics and evolution into a ...

VERTEBRATE PHYLOGENOMICS: RECONCILED TREES AND GENE DUPLICATIONS [PDF]

Biocomputing 2002, 2001
Ancient gene duplication events have left many traces in vertebrate genomes. Reconciled trees represent the differences between gene family trees and the species phylogeny those genes are sampled from, allowing us to both infer gene duplication events and estimate a species phylogeny from a sample of gene families.

The Eukaryotic Tree of Life from a Global Phylogenomic Perspective [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2014
Molecular phylogenetics has revolutionized our knowledge of the eukaryotic tree of life. With the advent of genomics, a new discipline of phylogenetics has emerged: phylogenomics. This method uses large alignments of tens to hundreds of genes to reconstruct evolutionary histories.

Phylogenomics——An Attractive Avenue to Reconstruct “Tree of Life”

HEREDITAS, 2006
The successive start-up of genome project in recent years has far-reaching impact on present phylogenetic studies. A new synthesized discipline--"Phylogenomics", combing genomics with phylogenetics together, is emerging, and becomes an attractive avenue to reconstruct "Tree of Life".

Phylogenomics: Constrained gene tree inference

Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2017
Data from many genes across the genome are now being routinely used in the hope of reconstructing challenging parts of the tree of life, and a new method provides a practical way of resolving the phylogenetic trees suggested by different genes.

Phylogenomic interrogation resolves the backbone of the Pseudoscorpiones tree of life

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2019
Pseudoscorpiones, with nearly 3700 described species, are an ancient and globally distributed group of arachnids with a fossil record dating back to the Middle Devonian. Previous attempts to reconstruct their phylogenetic history have used morphology or a few amplicons, mostly of rRNAs and mitochondrial genes, which have not been able to completely ...

Phylogenetics and Phylogenomics of the Fungal Tree of Life

2014
Phylogenetic trees, once restricted to studies on systematics, are now used throughout all disciplines of fungal biology and provide the evolutionary context for a broad suite of studies that include understanding the evolution of major life forms, description of complex biotic communities, and predictive experimental biology.

Broad phylogenomic sampling improves resolution of the animal tree of life

Nature, 2008
Long-held ideas regarding the evolutionary relationships among animals have recently been upended by sometimes controversial hypotheses based largely on insights from molecular data. These new hypotheses include a clade of moulting animals (Ecdysozoa) and the close relationship of the lophophorates to molluscs and annelids (Lophotrochozoa).

RETRACTED: Integrative phylogenomics positions sponges at the root of the animal tree

Science
Determining whether sponges or ctenophores root the animal tree has important implications for understanding early animal evolution. Here, we examined support for these competing hypotheses by constructing large and highly informative data matrices containing sequences from sponges, ctenophores, cnidarians, bilaterians, and diverse animal relatives ...
