TL;DR: Imagine if the authors could compute across phenotype data as easily as genomic data; this article calls for efforts to realize this vision and discusses the potential benefits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogenomics reveals rapid, simultaneous diversification of three major clades of Gondwanan frogs at the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary.
Yan-Jie Feng,David C. Blackburn,Dan Liang,David M. Hillis,David B. Wake,David C. Cannatella,Peng Zhang +6 more
TL;DR: It is found that ∼88% of living frogs originated from three principal lineages that arose at the end of the Mesozoic, coincident with the Cretaceous–Paleogene mass extinction event that decimated nonavian dinosaurs 66 Mya.
