Understanding Phylogeny and Evolution in Angiosperms

Phylogeny is the study of evolutionary relationships among organisms, depicted in phylogenetic trees based on shared characteristics. This overview delves into terms like homology, analogy, monophyly, and co-evolution in angiosperms with an emphasis on taxonomy, systematics, and the evolutionary his

Understanding Sequence Alignment in Genetics

Sequence alignment is the comparison of DNA or protein sequences to highlight similarities, often indicating a common ancestral sequence. This process is essential in determining homology and functional similarities between sequences. Types of alignment include global and local alignment, with chall
