Muscle5: High-accuracy alignment ensembles enable unbiased assessments of sequence homology and phylogeny

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2021
Multiple sequence alignments are widely used to infer evolutionary relationships, enabling inferences of structure, function, and phylogeny. Standard practice is to construct one alignment by some preferred method and use it in further analysis; however,

A review of the common crab genus Macromedaeus Ward, 1942 (Brachyura, Xanthidae) from China Seas with description of a new species using integrative taxonomy methods [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2022
Macromedaeus is one of the most common xanthid genera in shallow waters of the Indo-West Pacific. In this study, we describe a new species, Macromedaeus hainanensis sp. nov., and report on two newly recorded species, M. quinquedentatus (Krauss, 1843) and

Tabanids as possible pathogen vectors in Senegal (West Africa)

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Species of the Tabanidae are potent vectors of human and animal diseases, but they have not been thoroughly investigated to date. In Senegal (West Africa), little information is available on these dipterans.

Characterization and Comparison of Eye Development and Phototransduction Genes in Deep- and Shallow-Water Shrimp Alvinocaris longirostris and Palaemon carinicauda

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
The investigations of the molecular components of eye development and phototransduction in deep-sea species are important to elucidate the mechanism of their adaptation to dim light.

Inferring Transcript Phylogenies [PDF]

open access: yes2011 IEEE International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedicine, 2011
Alternative splicing, an unknown mechanism 20 years ago, is now recognized as a major mechanism for proteome and transcriptome diversity, particularly in mammals–some researchers conjecture that up to 90% of human genes are alternatively spliced. Despite much research on exon and intron evolution, little is known about the evolution of transcripts.

Phylogenies Without Fossils [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 1994
Phylogenies that are reconstructed without fossil material often contain approximate dates for lineage splitting. For example, particular nodes on molecular phylogenies may be dated by known geographic events that caused lineages to split, thereby calibrating a molecular clock that is used to date other nodes.

Mitogenomics provides new insights into the phylogenetic relationships and evolutionary history of deep-sea sea stars (Asteroidea)

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The deep sea (> 200 m) is considered as the largest and most remote biome, which characterized by low temperatures, low oxygen level, scarce food, constant darkness, and high hydrostatic pressure.

A genome-scale phylogeny of the kingdom Fungi.

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2021
Phylogenomic studies using genome-scale amounts of data have greatly improved understanding of the tree of life. Despite the diversity, ecological significance, and biomedical and industrial importance of fungi, evolutionary relationships among several ...

Morphology and molecular phylogeny of three new deep-sea species of Chrysogorgia (Cnidaria, Octocorallia) from seamounts in the tropical Western Pacific Ocean [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
Three new species of Chrysogorgia were discovered from seamounts in the tropical Western Pacific Ocean. Chrysogorgia dendritica sp. nov. and Chrysogorgia fragilis sp. nov. were collected from the Kocebu Guyot of the Magellan Seamount chain with the water

Full-Length Transcriptome Comparison Provides Novel Insights into the Molecular Basis of Adaptation to Different Ecological Niches of the Deep-Sea Hydrothermal Vent in Alvinocaridid Shrimps

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
The deep-sea hydrothermal vent ecosystem is one of the extreme chemoautotrophic environments. Shinkaicaris leurokolos Kikuchi and Hashimoto, 2000, and Alvinocaris longirostris Kikuchi and Ohta, 1995, are typically co-distributed and closely related ...
