What's in a character?

Journal of biomedical informatics - 1 Feb 2006

DeSalle Rob

Abstract excerpt

Systematic analyses are included as integral parts of bioinformatic analysis. The use of phenetic and phylogenetic trees in many of the newer areas of biology create a need for bioinformaticists to understand more completely the nuances of systematic analysis. Any description in comparative biology, universally begins with what information to use in the comparative endeavor. Phylogenetic approaches are no...
