Coalescent-based genome analyses resolve the early branches of the euarchontoglires. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Despite numerous large-scale phylogenomic studies, certain parts of the mammalian tree are extraordinarily difficult to resolve. We used the coding regions from 19 completely sequenced genomes to study the relationships within the super-clade ...

Endocranial shape variation and allometry in Euarchontoglires [PDF]
Scientific ReportsWhile brain size in primates and their relatives within Euarchontoglires is well-studied, less research has examined brain shape, or the allometric trajectories that underlie the relationship between size and shape.
