[HTML][HTML] The phylogeny and evolutionary history of arthropods
G Giribet, GD Edgecombe - Current Biology, 2019 - cell.com
Arthropods are the most diverse animal phylum, and their phylogenetic relationships have
been debated for centuries. With the advent of molecular phylogenetics, arthropods were …

The evolution of insect biodiversity
Insects comprise over half of all described animal species. Together with the Protura
(coneheads), Collembola (springtails) and Diplura (two-pronged bristletails), insects form …

Evolutionary history of Coleoptera revealed by extensive sampling of genes and species
Beetles (Coleoptera) are the most diverse and species-rich group of insects, and a robust,
time-calibrated phylogeny is fundamental to understanding macroevolutionary processes …

The beetle tree of life reveals that C oleoptera survived end‐P ermian mass extinction to diversify during the C retaceous terrestrial revolution
DD Mckenna, AL Wild, K Kanda… - Systematic …, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Here we present a phylogeny of beetles (I nsecta: C oleoptera) based on DNA sequence
data from eight nuclear genes, including six single‐copy nuclear protein‐coding genes, for …

Phylogenomics resolves the timing and pattern of insect evolution
Insects are the most speciose group of animals, but the phylogenetic relationships of many
major lineages remain unresolved. We inferred the phylogeny of insects from 1478 protein …

The draft genomes of soft-shell turtle and green sea turtle yield insights into the development and evolution of the turtle-specific body plan
Z Wang, J Pascual-Anaya, A Zadissa, W Li, Y Niimura… - Nature …, 2013 - nature.com
The unique anatomical features of turtles have raised unanswered questions about the
origin of their unique body plan. We generated and analyzed draft genomes of the soft-shell …

Assemblathon 2: evaluating de novo methods of genome assembly in three vertebrate species
Background The process of generating raw genome sequence data continues to become
cheaper, faster, and more accurate. However, assembly of such data into high-quality …

Expanding anchored hybrid enrichment to resolve both deep and shallow relationships within the spider tree of life
Background Despite considerable effort, progress in spider molecular systematics has
lagged behind many other comparable arthropod groups, thereby hindering family-level …
