Phylogenetics and molecular evolution lie at the heart of understanding the origins and diversification of life. By constructing phylogenetic trees, scientists map the evolutionary relationships ...

ANN ARBOR—For a long time, evolutionary biologists have thought that the genetic mutations that drive the evolution of genes and proteins are largely neutral: they're neither good nor bad, but just ...

Nematode taxonomy has long relied on traditional morphological criteria; however, the advent of molecular techniques has revolutionised species identification and phylogenetic analysis. Integrative ...
