Скачать или смотреть Kew tree of life project discovering the phylogeny of all flowering plants

High throughput sequencing has transformed approaches to phylogenetic analysis, allowing the construction of trees based on multiple loci and consideration of incongruence between nuclear and plastid data. This webinar will highlight how the Hyb-Seq method enriches whole-genome sequence data for target genes and can be used on preserved specimens, enabling a cost-effective and practicable strategy for the rigorous investigation of plant evolutionary relationships over a broad taxonomic scope.

The Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, has already generated a phylogeny covering over half of all flowering plant genera and aims to complete the tree (at the generic level) by 2025.

Who is this course for?
This webinar is suitable for anyone interested in plant sciences and data analysis. No prior knowledge of bioinformatics is required, but undergraduate level knowledge of biology would be useful.

This event is part of a webinar series highlighting the current concepts and analytical methods in plant sciences applicable to research, data management, and crop improvement. To explore other topics from this series and registration details follow this link Plants: a data sciences perspective.
