Parallel radiations in the primary clades of birds.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Nov 2004

Fain Matthew G, Houde Peter

Abstract excerpt

Knowledge of avian phylogeny is prerequisite to understanding the circumstances and timing of the diversification of birds and the evolution of morphological, behavioral, and life-history traits. Recent molecular datasets have helped to elucidate the three most basal clades in the tree of living birds, but relationships among neoavian orders (the vast majority of birds) remain frustratingly vexing. Here, we...
