Phylogenetic analysis underpins modern evolutionary biology by constructing trees that illustrate the relationships among species and genes. Gene tree reconciliation extends these analyses by aligning ...

When COVID-19 arrived, researchers tried to build evolutionary family trees—known as phylogenetic trees—of the virus. These ...

Phylogenetic networks offer a nuanced framework for representing evolutionary relationships beyond the conventional tree model. By incorporating reticulate events—such as hybridisation, horizontal ...

Genomes are key to unlocking life's evolutionary history. The presence and absence of certain genetic sequences and mutations ...

A new method from EMBL-EBI and collaborators offers fast, easy-to-interpret confidence scores for phylogenetic trees for pandemic preparedness ...
