Metazoan Tree Of Life at Life

Metazoan Tree Of Life. For the deep metazoan phylogeny project, data sets of hitherto unmatched quality and quantity were compiled and analysed with innovative bioinformatics tools. The backbone of the tree of life new insights from analyses of molecules, morphology, and theory of data analysis edited by j.

Understanding the relationships among all living organisms by phylogenetic tree reconstruction is one of the fundamental challenges in biology. A phylogenomic approach to gene repertoire evolution across the metazoan tree of life reveals unbalanced distributions of gene gains, losses and duplications Concatenated analysis sheds light on early metazoan evolution and fuels a modern “urmetazoon” hypothesis:

Genomic organization, evolution, and expression of

For the deep metazoan phylogeny project, data sets of hitherto unmatched quality and quantity were compiled and analysed with innovative bioinformatics tools. The present hypothesis also has so many facets that it cannot be completely crushed by a single new fact, but nevertheless it does entail a number of interesting predictions.
