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.

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

TL;DR: The 385-Mb genome of S. haematobium is sequenced using Illumina-based technology at 74-fold coverage and compared it to sequences from related parasites to provide an unprecedented resource for many fundamental research areas and shows great promise for the design of new disease interventions.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is found that genes on the polar bear lineage have been under stronger positive selection than in brown bears; nine of the top 16 genes under strong positive selection are associated with cardiomyopathy and vascular disease, implying important reorganization of the cardiovascular system.
Journal ArticleDOI
