Journal ArticleDOI

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

Phylotranscriptomic analysis of the origin and early diversification of land plants

TL;DR: Strong and robust support is found for a sister-group relationship between land plants and one group of streptophyte green algae, the Zygnematophyceae, and suggests that phylogenetic hypotheses used to understand the evolution of fundamental plant traits should be reevaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI

ASTRAL: genome-scale coalescent-based species tree estimation

TL;DR: ASTRAL is a fast method for estimating species trees from multiple genes that is statistically consistent, can run on datasets with thousands of genes and has outstanding accuracy—improving on MP-EST and the population tree from BUCKy, two statistically consistent leading coalescent-based methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

ASTRAL-II: coalescent-based species tree estimation with many hundreds of taxa and thousands of genes.

TL;DR: A new version of ASTRAL is presented, which is statistically consistent under the multi-species coalescent model and which is more accurate than other coalescent-based methods on the datasets the authors examined, and has substantially better accuracy under some conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical phylogenetics of histone deacetylases

TL;DR: The synthesis and study of a focused library of cinnamic hydroxamates allowed the identification of a first non-selective HDAC inhibitor, which will guide a more informed use of HDAC inhibitors as chemical probes and therapeutic agents.
