Yu Li

Open publisher page 6 citations

Abstract

The successive start-up of genome project in recent years has far-reaching impact on present phylogenetic studies. A new synthesized discipline--"Phylogenomics", combing genomics with phylogenetics together, is emerging, and becomes an attractive avenue to reconstruct "Tree of Life". In the review, the conception and analytic method of phylogenomics are summarized. The potential problems are also suggested.
