Sketch, capture and layout phylogenies

"We present new algorithms for visualizing rooted phylogenetic networks as either combining or transfer networks, in both cladogram and phylogram style. In addition, we introduce a layout algorithm that aims to improve clarity by minimizing the total stretch of reticulate edges."

Well, you're also h. sapiens, rather than myxogastria. Better looking goes with the territory 😉

We published a paper. We used phylodynamics to analyze over 2000 isolates from the meningococcal B epidemic that New Zealand experienced from 1991 to 2008. We found the epidemic strain maybe circulating a decade before disease was detected and suggest that increasing inequalities in New Zealand during late 1980s/early 1990s may have contributed to the start of the epidemic in. the https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39924093/ #phylogeny #infectiousdiseases #publichealth

E magari dare foco a tutte le scuole intitolate a quell'eretico di Charles Darwin

I wish I could get a large enough print of this that I could actually read it. It's a phylogeny of flowering plants along with examples of typical flowers from each genus. Mind blown. #NativePlants #Phylogeny

Uhhhhh holy shit no one told me _Dolomedes_ & co. got moved from Pisauridae to their own family, Dolomedidae? https://wsc.nmbe.ch/family/158/Dolomedidae

Marveling about this beautiful #wasp #phylogeny visualization from the great book "Wasps" by Eric R. Eaton. I'd so love to have that (with timeline approximations) for EVERY taxon.

La phylogénie moléculaire, en plus de révéler les relations évolutives entre espèces, souches, etc..., est un formidable outil pour comprendre les dynamiques d'adaptations des pathogènes

@dantheclamman Naked (kind-of) shell-less clams with an agile foot read like a proto-cephalopod. Are they close at all to the phylogenetic branch that took off with squids, octopus and cuttlefish, or is "cephalopodness" a trait that can re-evolve from an ancestral clam base?
