摘要: As more complete genomes are sequenced, phylogenetic analysis is entering a new era — that of phylogenomics. One branch this expanding field aims to reconstruct the evolutionary history organisms on basis their genomes. Recent studies have demonstrated power approach, which has potential provide answers several fundamental questions. However, challenges for future also been revealed. The very nature and limitations current reconstruction methods mean part tree life might prove difficult, if not impossible, resolve with confidence.
