Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogenomics provides strong evidence for relationships of butterflies and moths.

TL;DR: This work presents the first robust, transcriptome-based tree of Lepidoptera that strongly contradicts historical placement of butterflies, and provides an evolutionary framework for genomic, developmental and ecological studies on this diverse insect order.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resolving Relationships among the Megadiverse Butterflies and Moths with a Novel Pipeline for Anchored Phylogenomics.

TL;DR: A pipeline for anchored hybrid enrichment (AHE) read assembly, orthology determination, contamination screening, and data processing for sequences flanking the target “probe” region are developed and a new, 855 locus AHE kit is introduced for Lepidoptera phylogenetics and resulting trees are compared to those from transcriptomes.
