Author Correction: Evidence for sponges as sister to all other animals from partitioned phylogenomics with mixture models and recoding

Nature Communications, 2021
Resolving the relationships between the major lineages in the animal tree of life is necessary to understand the origin and evolution of key animal traits.

Phylogenomics Reveals Ancient Gene Tree Discordance in the Amphibian Tree of Life

Systematic Biology, 2020
Molecular phylogenies have yielded strong support for many parts of the amphibian Tree of Life, but poor support for the resolution of deeper nodes, including relationships among families and orders.

The promise and pitfalls of synteny in phylogenomics

PLoS Biology
Reconstructing the tree of life remains a central goal in biology. Early methods, which relied on small numbers of morphological or genetic characters, often yielded conflicting evolutionary histories, undermining confidence in the results ...

Phylogenomics of Mycobacterium africanum reveals a new lineage and a complex evolutionary history

bioRxiv, 2020
Human tuberculosis is caused by members of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex (MTBC). The MTBC comprises several human-adapted lineages known as M.

Strategies for reducing per‐sample costs in target capture sequencing for phylogenomics and population genomics in plants

Applications in Plant Sciences, 2020
The reduced cost of high‐throughput sequencing and the development of gene sets with wide phylogenetic applicability has led to the rise of sequence capture methods as a plausible platform for both phylogenomics and population genomics in plants.

Phylogenomics of expanding uncultured environmental Tenericutes provides insights into their pathogenicity and evolutionary relationship with Bacilli

bioRxiv, 2020
Background The metabolic capacity, stress response and evolution of uncultured environmental Tenericutes have remained elusive, since previous studies have been largely focused on pathogenic species.

Phylogenomics reveals the evolutionary timing and pattern of butterflies and moths

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Lepidoptera play key roles in many biological systems. Butterflies are hypothesized to have evolved contemporaneously with flowering plants, and moths are thought to have gained anti-bat defenses in response to echolocating predatory bats ...

Phylogenomics of 10,575 genomes reveals evolutionary proximity between domains Bacteria and Archaea

Nature Communications, 2019
Rapid growth of genome data provides opportunities for updating microbial evolutionary relationships, but this is challenged by the discordant evolution of individual genes.

Phylogenomics of Plant-Associated Botryosphaeriaceae Species

bioRxiv, 2021
The Botryosphaeriaceae is a fungal family that includes many destructive vascular pathogens of woody plants (e.g., Botryosphaeria dieback of grape, Panicle blight of pistachio).
