Bioinformatics for biologists / by Pevzner, Pavel 310329, Shamir, Ron 410488

“…Self-contained chapters show how computational procedures are developed and applied to central topics in bioinformatics and genomics, such as the genetic basis of disease, genome evolution or the tree of life concept. Using bioinformatic resources requires a basic understanding of what bioinformatics is and what it can do. …”

Genome-scale reconstructions to assess metabolic phylogeny and organism clustering. by Christian Schulz, Eivind Almaas

“…Phylogenetic analyses based on sets of highly conserved genes are currently the basis for the Tree of Life. Genome-scale metabolic reconstructions contain high-quality information regarding the metabolic capability of an organism and are typically restricted to metabolically active enzyme-encoding genes. …”

Messages From the Past: New Insights in Plant Lectin Evolution by Sofie Van Holle, Els J. M. Van Damme

“…In this study, we revisit the origin of the different plant lectin families in view of the recently reshaped tree of life. Due to new genomic sampling of previously unknown microbial lineages, the tree of life has expanded and was reshaped multiple times. …”

Textbook of Phylogenetics / by Krieger, Joshua, author 648873

“…In biological systematics as a whole, phylogenetic analyzes have become essential in researching the evolutionary tree of life. Evolution is regarded as a branching process, whereby populations are altered over time and may speciate into separate branches, hybridize together, or terminate by extinction. …”

OrthoSNAP: A tree splitting and pruning algorithm for retrieving single-copy orthologs from gene family trees. by Jacob L Steenwyk, Dayna C Goltz, Thomas J Buida, Yuanning Li, Xing-Xing Shen, Antonis Rokas

“…Comparison of SNAP-OGs and SC-OGs revealed that their phylogenetic information content was similar, even in complex datasets that contain a whole-genome duplication, complex patterns of duplication and loss, transcriptome data where each gene typically has multiple transcripts, and contentious branches in the tree of life. OrthoSNAP is useful for increasing the number of markers used in molecular evolution data matrices, a critical step for robustly inferring and exploring the tree of life.…”

A synthesis tree of the Copepoda: integrating phylogenetic and taxonomic data reveals multiple origins of parasitism by James P. Bernot, Geoffrey A. Boxshall, Keith A. Crandall

“…A literature review in this study finds fewer than 500 species of copepods have been sampled in molecular phylogenetic studies. Using the Open Tree of Life platform, those taxa that have been sampled in previous phylogenetic studies are grafted together and combined with the underlying copepod taxonomic hierarchy from the Open Tree of Life Taxonomy to make a synthesis phylogeny of all copepod species. …”
