EngagementModerate engagement

Participants engage by referencing figures, methods, and implications, demonstrating thoughtful analysis.

ImpactHigh impact

The widespread sharing of figures and mention of the study as a 'gold standard' indicates high perceived impact.

Abstract in brief

  • Insects are the most diverse animals, but their evolutionary relationships are still unclear.
  • Researchers used 1478 protein-coding genes to create a detailed phylogenetic tree, solving many previous disputes about their relationships.
  • The study also dates significant evolutionary events for insects, like their origin to about 479 million years ago and the development of flight around 406 million years ago.

@tyler_nelz Misof et al 2014 (https://t.co/418xfjfYAS)? This shirt is at least 10 years old, the design is probably older. Isopoptera is separate from Blattodea and Strepsipterans are in limbo with the flies.
