Morphological and molecular convergences in mammalian phylogenetics
Morphological characters are generally thought to have higher rates of convergence than molecular characters. Here, Zou and Zhang provide empirical evidence for this assumption and devise a method to improve the accuracy of phylogenetic reconstruction through identifying and removing convergence-pro...
