When COVID-19 arrived, researchers tried to build evolutionary family trees—known as phylogenetic trees—of the virus. These ...

Phylogenetic analysis underpins modern evolutionary biology by constructing trees that illustrate the relationships among species and genes. Gene tree reconciliation extends these analyses by aligning ...

When species under a taxonomic umbrella have faced forks in the road, leading to extinction or adaptation, the path taken has been difficult to follow. Scientists now argue that long-used approaches ...
