The systematics of the Cervidae: a total evidence approach [PDF]

PeerJ, 2020
Systematic relationships of cervids have been controversial for decades. Despite new input from molecular systematics, consensus could only be partially reached.

Total evidence phylogeny and evolutionary timescale for Australian faunivorous marsupials (Dasyuromorphia) [PDF]

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2017
Background The order Dasyuromorphia is a diverse radiation of faunivorous marsupials, comprising >80 modern species in Australia and New Guinea. It includes dasyurids, the numbat (the myrmecobiid Myrmecobius fasciatus) and the recently extinct thylacine (

Multiple morphological clocks and total-evidence tip-dating in mammals. [PDF]

Biol Lett, 2016
Morphological integration predicts that correlated characters will coevolve; thus, each distinct suite of correlated characters might be expected to evolve according to a separate clock or ‘pacemaker’. Characters in a large morphological dataset for mammals were found to be evolving according to seven separate clocks, each distinct from the molecular ...

Eumalacostracan phylogeny and total evidence: limitations of the usual suspects [PDF]

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2009
Background The phylogeny of Eumalacostraca (Crustacea) remains elusive, despite over a century of interest. Recent morphological and molecular phylogenies appear highly incongruent, but this has not been assessed quantitatively.

Total neoadjuvant therapy for rectal cancer: evidence and challenge [PDF]

Annals of Coloproctology, 2023
Recent advances in the management of rectal cancer have dramatically changed the clinical practice of colorectal surgeons because the main focus of rectal cancer treatment has changed from sphincter-saving to an organ-preserving strategies. Modifying the

Use of a cow-side oestrus detection test for fertility management in Kenyan smallholder dairy herds. [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]

Gates Open Research, 2022
Background: The use of artificial insemination (AI) has great potential to improve smallholder dairy herds in Africa, however poor success and, in some situations, high costs in Kenya, have been discouraging.
