Phylogenomics: the beginning of incongruence? (2008)
Jeffroy, Olivier, Brinkmann, Henner, Delsuc, Frédéric, Philippe, Hervé
Until recently, molecular phylogenies based on a single or few orthologous genes often yielded contradictory results. Using multiple genes in a large concatenation was proposed to end these...

Delsuc, Frédéric, Brinkmann, Henner, Chourrout, Daniel, Philippe, Hervé
Tunicates or urochordates (appendicularians, salps and sea squirts), cephalochordates (lancelets) and vertebrates (including lamprey and hagfish) constitute the three extant groups of chordate...

Phylogenomics and the reconstruction of the tree of life. (2007)
Delsuc, Frédéric, Brinkmann, Henner, Philippe, Hervé
As more complete genomes are sequenced, phylogenetic analysis is entering a new era - that of phylogenomics. One branch of this expanding field aims to reconstruct the evolutionary history of...

Heterotachy and long-branch attraction in phylogenetics. (2007)
Philippe, Hervé, Zhou, Yan, Brinkmann, Henner, Rodrigue, Nicolas, Delsuc, Frédéric
BACKGROUND: Probabilistic methods have progressively supplanted the Maximum Parsimony (MP) method for inferring phylogenetic trees. One of the major reasons for this shift was that MP is much more...

Urodele p53 tolerates amino acid changes found in p53 variants linked to human cancer (2007)
Villiard, Éric, Brinkmann, Henner, Moiseeva, Olga, Mallette, Frédérick A, Ferbeyre, Gerardo, Roy, Stéphane
Abstract Background Urodele amphibians like the axolotl are unique among vertebrates in their ability to regenerate and their resistance to develop cancers. It is unknown whether these traits are...
Kehrer, Daniel, Ahmed, Hatim, Brinkmann, Henner, Siebers, Bettina
Abstract Background The presence of the branched Entner-Doudoroff (ED) pathway in two hyperthermophilic Crenarchaea, the anaerobe Thermoproteus tenax and the aerobe Sulfolobus solfataricus , was...
Lartillot, Nicolas, Brinkmann, Henner, Philippe, Hervé
Abstract Background Thanks to the large amount of signal contained in genome-wide sequence alignments, phylogenomic analyses are converging towards highly supported trees. However, high statistical...

Molybdenum (Mo) plays an essential role in the active site of all eukaryotic Mo-containing enzymes. In plants, Mo enzymes are important for nitrate assimilation, phytohormone synthesis, and purine...

Only a Few Fungal Species Dominate Highly Diverse Mycofloras Associated with the Common Reed
Neubert, Karin, Mendgen, Kurt, Brinkmann, Henner, Wirsel, Stefan G. R.
Plants are naturally colonized by many fungal species that produce effects ranging from beneficial to pathogenic. However, how many of these fungi are linked with a single host plant has not been...

Multiple overseas dispersal in amphibians.
Vences, Miguel, Vieites, David R, Glaw, Frank, Brinkmann, Henner, Kosuch, Joachim, Veith, Michael, ...
Amphibians are thought to be unable to disperse over ocean barriers because they do not tolerate the osmotic stress of salt water. Their distribution patterns have therefore generally been explained...
