Broad phylogenomic sampling improves resolution of the animal tree of life
Long-held ideas regarding the evolutionary relationships among animals have recently been
upended by sometimes controversial hypotheses based largely on insights from molecular …

Sea anemone genome reveals ancestral eumetazoan gene repertoire and genomic organization
Sea anemones are seemingly primitive animals that, along with corals, jellyfish, and hydras,
constitute the oldest eumetazoan phylum, the Cnidaria. Here, we report a comparative …
