Whole-genome analyses resolve early branches in the tree of life of modern birds

Erich D. Jarvis, +116 more
- 12 Dec 2014 - 
TL;DR: A genome-scale phylogenetic analysis of 48 species representing all orders of Neoaves recovered a highly resolved tree that confirms previously controversial sister or close relationships and identifies the first divergence in Neoaves, two groups the authors named Passerea and Columbea.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative genomics reveals insights into avian genome evolution and adaptation.

Guojie Zhang, +106 more
- 12 Dec 2014 - 
TL;DR: This work explored bird macroevolution using full genomes from 48 avian species representing all major extant clades to reveal that pan-avian genomic diversity covaries with adaptations to different lifestyles and convergent evolution of traits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Marine turtle mitogenome phylogenetics and evolution.

TL;DR: Complete mitogenomes for all sea-turtle species are sequenced, showing strong support and resolution for phylogenetic relationships among all sea turtles, and phylogeographic patterns within globally-distributed species are revealed.
