Deep Metazoan Phylogeny: the Backbone of the Tree of Life : New Insights from Analyses of Molecules, Morphology, and Theory of Data Analysis.
The growing success of molecular methods has challenged traditional views of animal evolution and a large number of alternative hypotheses are hotly debated today. For the deep metazoan phylogeny project, data sets of hitherto unmatched quality and quantity were compiled and analysed with innovative...
