Pick a favorite species and find a phylogenetic tree that has this species in it
Pick a favorite species and find a phylogenetic tree that has this species in it. The species can be alive or extinct but must be non-human.
Your post must include:
Image of the phylogenetic tree
Citation for the source of the phylogeny
Explanation of what type of data was used to build the phylogeny (e.g. DNA, RNA, morphology, etc.)
What statistical framework (look in Methods section) did they use to create the phylogeny (e.g. Maximum Likelihood, Bayesian, Parsimony, UPGMA)?
Why were the authors interested in knowing the phylogenetic relationship for this group?
Reply to two peers:
How is this phylogenetic tree similar or different to those you have seen in CogBooks?
Is there anything interesting or surprising about the relationships in the tree? Explain.
Helpful hints: you can start by searching using the common or scientific name of the species you are interested in. If you are not successful, try finding a phylogeny for the genus or possibly the family. A good source may be to use the ASU Library “One Search”.
