Phylogenetic Reconstruction of Lung Evolution in Extant Squamata
Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.The Squamata group exhibits remarkable diversity in lung structure. However, a comprehensive understanding of how this variation evolved within the clade is still lacking. To reconstruct the evolutionary history of lungs of living squamates, we conducted comparative phylogenetic analyses using categorized lung traits, such as lung type, respiratory ...
