Phylogenetic relationships among the Paramyxoviridae, a broad family of viruses whose members cause devastating diseases of wildlife, livestock, and humans, were examined with both fusion (F) and matrix (M) protein-coding sequences. Neighbor-joining trees of F and M protein sequences showed that the

Relationships among the 18-19 species of spinetails of the genus Cranioleuca are difficult to establish. Attempts based on traditional taxonomic characters have failed because of a high degree of homoplasy. Most morphological characters vary independently, producing leap-frog patterns of variation a
Partial genome sequencing (PGS) and restriction fragment analysis (RFA) are used frequently in molecular epidemiologic investigations. The relative accuracy of PGS and RFA in phylogenetic reconstruction has not been assessed. In this study, 32 model phylogenetic trees with 16 extant lineages were ge
The subfamily Microgastrinae is a highly diversified group of parasitoid wasps that attacks all of the different groups of Lepidoptera. We explore here the phylogenetic signal in three gene (mitochondrial COI and 16S, and nuclear 28S) fragments as an assessment of their utility in resolving generic
