TLDR
This study represents the most extensive taxonomic sampling effort to date to collect new molecular characters for phylogenetic analysis of acanthomorph fishes, with new and reliable clades emerging from this study of the acanthomorphic radiation.About:

New gadiform fishes (Teleostei, Gadiformes) from the Miocene of Algeria
TL;DR: A paleoecological analysis reveals that the Messinian gadiform assemblage of the Chelif Basin had a subtropical/warm temperate affinity, with a marked north-eastern Atlantic-Mediterranean biogeographic character.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metacanthomorpha: Essay on a phylogeny-oriented database for morphology: The acanthomorph (Teleostei) example
TL;DR: This paper presents a meta-anatomy of the “phylogenie” of phylogeny, a type of “cell reprograming” in which the number of cells in a tree is regulated by a “spatially aggregating” process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Postcranial skeletal development of Mugil cephalus (Teleostei: Mugiliformes): morphological and life-history implications for Mugiliformes
TL;DR: The skeletal development of mullets is described for the first time and comparison of mugilid development with that of other ovalentarian taxa shows that recent phylogenetic hypotheses need further morphological investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mitochondrial Intergenic Spacer in Fairy Basslets (Serranidae: Anthiinae) and the Simultaneous Analysis of Nucleotide and Rearrangement Data
TL;DR: A study that implements a recently developed phylogenetic algorithm that combines fixed-states nucleotide optimization with breakpoint analysis to identify and examine the evolution of a mitochondrial intergenic spacer in a clade of fairy basslets indicates that this spacer evolved once and that it may be increasing in size through evolutionary time.

The neighbor-joining method: a new method for reconstructing phylogenetic trees.
Naruya Saitou,Masatoshi Nei +1 more
TL;DR: The neighbor-joining method and Sattath and Tversky's method are shown to be generally better than the other methods for reconstructing phylogenetic trees from evolutionary distance data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Confidence limits on phylogenies: an approach using the bootstrap.
TL;DR: The recently‐developed statistical method known as the “bootstrap” can be used to place confidence intervals on phylogenies and shows significant evidence for a group if it is defined by three or more characters.

The CLUSTAL_X windows interface: flexible strategies for multiple sequence alignment aided by quality analysis tools.
TL;DR: ClUSTAL X is a new windows interface for the widely-used progressive multiple sequence alignment program CLUSTAL W, providing an integrated system for performing multiple sequence and profile alignments and analysing the results.
