Homoplasy in genome-wide analysis of rare amino acid replacements: the molecular-evolutionary basis for Vavilov's law of homologous series

Igor B Rogozin, Karen Thomson, Miklós Csürös, Liran Carmel, Eugene V Koonin Biology Direct 2008, 3:7 (17 March 2008)

Homoplasy denotes the same (parallel) mutations occurring independently in different lineages. It is a scourge of phylogenetic methods. Here, however, it is shown that homoplasy is also an interesting evolutionary phenomenon. Homplasy seems, at least, in part, to underlie the so-called homologous series of phenotypic variation occurring in different, particularly, closely related lineages, an effect first described by the famous Russian geneticict Vavilov some 90 years ago.

Rooting the eutherian tree: the power and pitfalls of phylogenomics

Hidenori Nishihara, Norihiro Okada, Masami Hasegawa Genome Biology 2007, 8:R199 (21 September 2007)

In an attempt to root the eutherian tree using genome-scale data with the maximum likelihood method, a concatenate analysis supports a putatively wrong tree, whereas separate analyses of different genes reduced the bias.

Where is the difference between the genomes of humans and annelids?

Alexei Fedorov, Larisa Fedorova Genome Biology 2006, 7:203 (1 February 2006)

The first systematic investigation of an annelid genome has revealed that the genes of the marine worm Platynereis dumerilii are more closely related to those of vertebrates than to those of insects or nematodes.
