Phylogenies#
Phylogenies - lecture notes (by Casey Dunn): Phylogenetic Biology.
Note that inferring orthology, building a species tree from a set of orthologous genes and assuming functional conservation among orthologous genes is not as straight forward as it seems. For more information, see for example: Gabaldon and Koonin, 2013.
Globin gene superfamily#
Evolution of the globin gene superfamily in vertebrates (note Figure 1).
Evolutionary Innovations in Hemoglobin-Oxygen Transport (note Figures 1 and 3).
