"Our work has changed many traditional views on the evolutionary history of birds," said Zhang Guojie from Zhejiang University. "This new family tree will serve as a solid backbone for mapping the ...

This research demonstrates tree frogs were present in Australia 30 million years earlier than previously thought, living alongside Australia’s earliest known snakes, songbirds and marsupials.

Researchers merged genetic data from 9,239 bird species (from nearly 300 studies) plus 1,000 curated entries to build a complete, shareable evolutionary tree. Published in PNAS and integrated into the ...

I used to work at Dollar Tree, and I still really enjoy shopping there. While not everything in the store is a dollar anymore — most items are $1.25 — a lot of buys are still a great value.

The study was led by Professor Emily Jane McTavish and her team at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. They worked to gather and organize data on 9,239 bird species, pulling from nearly 300 published ...

Birds are the most diverse land vertebrate on the planet, and now scientists have constructed a complete evolutionary tree of the 11,000 or so known species. This data came from hundreds of ...

Improving this tree, or improving trees of other important protein families, would be an important advance for human health,” Notredame pointed out. The potential applications of the work go ...

The rooted Max Tree Coverage (MTC) problem has wide applications in areas such as network design and vehicle routing. Given a graph with nonnegative costs defined on edges, a vertex used as the root, ...
