Broad phylogenomic sampling improves resolution of the animal tree of life
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
This data reinforce several previously identified clades that split deeply in the animal tree, unambiguously resolve multiple long-standing issues for which there was strong conflicting support in earlier studies with less data, and provide molecular support for the monophyly of molluscs, a group long recognized by morphologists.
