Fruit trees need to be grown in the right conditions if they're to flower and fruit to their full potential. Bare-root fruit trees are generally cheaper to buy than potted trees, and the time to buy ...

Controlling for phylogeny is essential in comparative genomics studies, because species, genomes and genes are not independent data points within statistical tests. The authors review the ...

What is the plan to stop deforestation? Forests absorb vast amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) - a major contributor to global warming - so cutting down trees can have a big impact on climate change.

i.e., not all gene trees represent the species tree. Phylogenetic discordance is common in phylogenomic datasets, and apart from ILS, additional sources include hybridization, whole-genome duplication ...

As in other organisms, diversification in bacteria leads to entities that we call species, which group together organisms that have evolved separately from others. Species can be differentiated from ...
