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 ...

Phylogenetic tree diagrams form the basis of understanding microbial evolution. Long branches between the two domains in some trees may reflect a period of very rapid evolution, billions of years ago.

An analysis of millions of SARS-CoV-2 genomes finds that recombination of the virus is uncommon, but when it occurs, it is most often in the spike protein region, the area which allows the virus to ...

A research team from Ruhr-Universität Bochum (RUB) has developed a new artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm that significantly enhances the analysis capabilities of biological data by incorporating ...
