Whole-genome analyses resolve early branches in the tree of life of modern birds

Whole-genome analyses resolve early branches in the tree of life of modern birds

To better determine the history of modern birds, we performed a genome-scale phylogenetic analysis of 48 species representing all orders of Neoaves using phylogenomic methods created to handle genome-scale data. We recovered a highly resolved tree that confirms previously controversial sister or clo...
