African origin and Late Cretaceous divergence of the Middle American catfish Lacantunia enigmatica corroborated by a global mitogenome phylogeny

Jairo Arroyave, Adán Fernando Mar‐Silva, Alfonso A. González‐Díaz…·Julia J. Day

The paper sequenced the mitochondrial genome of Lacantunia enigmatica and used it to construct a global catfish phylogeny, supporting its African origin and Late Cretaceous divergence.

An in silico comparison of reduced-representation and sequence-capture protocols for phylogenomics

Rupert A. Collins, Tomas Hrbek

The paper compares four phylogenomic protocols using primate genomes, finding they perform equally well for uncontroversial nodes but show conflicting results for difficult ones, with discrepancies in clade age estimates.
