A time-calibrated phylogeny of hummingbirds supports stepwise diversification in the Andes

Rute R. da Fonseca, Gary R. Graves, Siavash Mirarab, Inger E. Winkelmann, Santiago Claramunt, Miguel M. Fonseca, José Alfredo Samaniego Castruita, Fernando Peñaloza, Cai Li, Sara Rocha, Merly Escalona, Lys Sanz Moreta, Anders Albrechtsen, Tandy Warnow, Jon Fjeldså, , Carsten Rahbek

This study reconstructs a time-calibrated hummingbird phylogeny, finding stepwise diversification in the Andes rather than a monophyletic Andean clade.

Comparative Performance of Two Whole Genome Capture Methodologies on Ancient DNA Illumina Libraries

Maria Avila-Arcos, Marcela Sandoval-Velasco, Hannes Schroeder, Meredith L Carpenter, Anna-Sapfo Malaspinas, Nathan Wales, Fernando Peñaloza, Carlos D Bustamante, M. Thomas P Gilbert

This study compares two whole genome capture methods on ancient DNA libraries, finding that bait length affects enrichment and that WGC may bias against shorter molecules in single-stranded protocols.
