This may be the reason why biologists have only in the last few decades come to develop a rigorous understanding of phylogenetic trees. This understanding allows present-day researchers to use ...

Feel free to modify the number of species that students use to create their phylogenetic tree poster or digital presentation. Evaluate (20 min): Formal assessment (independent practice ...

“Understanding phylogenetic trees can be difficult, but we’re working to make it more accessible,” says principal investigator Chia Shen, director of Scientists’ Discovery Room (S ...

What do phylogenetic trees illustrate? These diagrams don't just organize knowledge of biodiversity - they also show us that living species are the summation of their evolutionary history.

The tool, called PsiPartition, improves both the computational efficiency of the data analysis and the accuracy of the phylogenetic trees that visualize these relationships. The novel method was ...
