Motivation: Phylogenomics integrates the vast amount of phylogenetic information contained
in complete genome sequences, and is rapidly becoming the standard for reliably inferring …

Background The availability of sequences from whole genomes to reconstruct the tree of life
has the potential to enable the development of phylogenomic hypotheses in ways that have …

Motivation: Through the most extensive phylogenomic analysis carried out to date, complete
genomes of 11 eukaryotic species have been examined in order to find the homologous of …

Phylogenomic studies aim to build phylogenies from large sets of homologous genes. Such
“genome-sized” data require fast methods, because of the typically large numbers of taxa …

With the wealth of available genome sequences, a difficult and tedious part of inferring
phylogenomic trees is now to select genomes with an appropriate taxon density in the …

Orthologs are widely used for phylogenetic analysis of species; however, identifying
genuine orthologs among distantly related species is challenging, because genes obtained …

Abstract Knowledge of species phylogeny is critical to many fields of biology. In an era of
genome data availability, the most common way to make a phylogenetic species tree is by …

The growing availability of complete genomic sequences from diverse species has brought
about the need to scale up phylogenomic analyses, including the reconstruction of large …

Abstract Quest for Orthologs (QfO) is a community effort with the goal to improve and
