What's in an outgroup? The impact of outgroup choice on the phylogenetic position of Thalattosuchia (Crocodylomorpha) and the origin of Crocodyliformes
EW Wilberg - Systematic Biology, 2015 - academic.oup.com
Outgroup sampling is a central issue in phylogenetic analysis. However, good justification is
rarely given for outgroup selection in published analyses. Recent advances in our …
