The new tree of eukaryotes
For 15 years, the eukaryote Tree of Life (eToL) has been divided into five to eight major
groupings, known as 'supergroups'. However, the tree has been profoundly rearranged …

Toward a fully resolved fungal tree of life
In this review, we discuss the current status and future challenges for fully elucidating the
fungal tree of life. In the last 15 years, advances in genomic technologies have …

Ancient gene linkages support ctenophores as sister to other animals
A central question in evolutionary biology is whether sponges or ctenophores (comb jellies)
are the sister group to all other animals. These alternative phylogenetic hypotheses imply …

Proposal to reclassify the proteobacterial classes Deltaproteobacteria and Oligoflexia, and the phylum Thermodesulfobacteria into four phyla reflecting major …
The class Deltaproteobacteria comprises an ecologically and metabolically diverse group of
bacteria best known for dissimilatory sulphate reduction and predatory behaviour. Although …

ASTRAL-III: polynomial time species tree reconstruction from partially resolved gene trees
Background Evolutionary histories can be discordant across the genome, and such
discordances need to be considered in reconstructing the species phylogeny. ASTRAL is …

AlphaFold predictions are valuable hypotheses and accelerate but do not replace experimental structure determination
Artificial intelligence-based protein structure prediction methods such as AlphaFold have
revolutionized structural biology. The accuracies of these predictions vary, however, and …

Incongruence in the phylogenomics era
Genome-scale data and the development of novel statistical phylogenetic approaches have
greatly aided the reconstruction of a broad sketch of the tree of life and resolved many of its …
