Gene tree and species tree reconciliation is a crucial area of study in evolutionary biology that seeks to understand the relationships between gene evolution and species evolution. This process ...

The three-dimensional shape of a protein can be used to resolve deep, ancient evolutionary relationships in the tree of life, ...

Two fundamental mechanisms of gene regulation involve transcription factors and microRNAs, a large class of small, non-coding RNAs. It is widely believed that phenotypic evolution is closely ...

Researchers have innovatively merged protein structural data with genetic sequences to construct evolutionary trees, ...

a tree that shows which clades evolved under the same lambda (if available); and a gene family evolution tree for each user-specified gene family. positional arguments: report_cafe the file ...

A new computational tool improves the analysis of genetic data, making it easier and faster to study the evolutionary ...

The three-dimensional shape of a protein can be used to resolve deep, ancient evolutionary relationships in the tree of life, according to a new study. It is the first time researchers use data from ...

In a new study involving whole-genome data, researchers present “CASTER,” a tool that uses arrangements in DNA sequences known as site patterns to infer “species trees,” which are diagrams that depict ...

This script performs introgression tests in 4-taxa oriented trees, in a similar fashion as ABBA/BABA tests [1,2], but using gene trees as input data instead of SNPs. Thus, it is usefull to investigate ...

Researchers say strategy will help understand the history of life, monitor the spread of pathogens or create new treatments for disease.
