Tropical tree phylogenomics paper online!

The article about the use of Next-Gen Sequencing in resolving the phylogeny of the tropical tree family Chrysobalanaceae is online.

 
It is titled "Genome skimming by shotgun sequencing helps resolve the phylogeny of a pantropical tree family" and deals with the easy, rapid and cost-efficient sequencing of tree organelles.
 
I hope you enjoy reading it!

 

 

Phylogenomics paper accepted!

The article about the use of Next-Gen Sequencing in resolving the phylogeny of the tropical tree family Chrysobalanaceae has been accepted for publication in Molecular Ecology Resources.
 
It is titled "Genome skimming by shotgun sequencing helps resolve the phylogeny of a pantropical tree family" and will hopefully be online soon.
