There are many methods for making evolutionary inferences from phylogenetic trees. Many
of these can be divided into three main classes of models: continuous-time Markov chain …

How will the emerging possibility of inferring ultra‐large phylogenies influence our ability to
identify shifts in diversification rate? For several large angiosperm clades (Angiospermae …

Premise of the Study Large phylogenies can help shed light on macroevolutionary patterns
that inform our understanding of fundamental processes that shape the tree of life. These …

Ever larger phylogenies are being constructed due to the explosion of genetic data and
development of high-performance phylogenetic reconstruction algorithms. However, most …

• Premise of the study: It has been 8 years since the last comprehensive analysis of
divergence times across the angiosperms. Given recent methodological improvements in …

The six-layered neocortex is a uniquely mammalian structure with evolutionary origins that
remain in dispute. One long-standing hypothesis, based on similarities in neuronal …

The species representation of public databases is growing rapidly and permits increasingly
detailed phylogenetic inferences. We present a supermatrix based on all gene sequences of …

The aim of the present study was to infer a substantially larger, more evenly sampled,
phylogenetic tree for Caryophyllaceae in order to more confidently resolve relationships …

Several extensions to implied weighting, recently implemented in TNT, allow a better
treatment of data sets combining morphological and molecular data sets, as well as those …

It has long been appreciated that analyses of genomic data (eg, whole genome sequencing
or sequence capture) have the potential to reveal the tree of life, but it remains challenging …
