Does time matter in phylogeny? A perspective from the fossil record

P. Guenser, R. C. M. Warnock, W. Pett, P. C. J. Donoghue, E. Jarochowska

This study applies a Bayesian fossil birth-death model to conodont data, showing reduced phylogenetic uncertainty when combining morphology and stratigraphic data.

The role of homology and orthology in the phylogenomic analysis of metazoan gene content

W. Pett, M. Adamski, M. Adamska, W. R. Francis, M. Eitel, D. Pisani, G. Woerheide

The paper analyzes gene content in 26 animal genomes to show that gene conservation patterns differ based on orthology vs. homology definitions, suggesting new approaches are needed for resolving deep metazoan phylogeny.
