Phylogenomic Analysis of Protein-Coding Genes Resolves Complex Gall Wasp Relationships

J. Hearn, E. Gobbo, J. L. Nieves-Aldrey, A. Branca, J. A. Nicholls, G. Koutsovoulos, N. Lartillot, G. N. Stone, F. Ronquist

This paper uses phylogenomic analysis of protein-coding genes to resolve relationships among gall wasps, finding that Cynipidae is not monophyletic and proposing its division into three families.
