Some of these might warrant recognition as subgenera, to show the evolutionary and phylogenetic patterns of the numerous dombeyas more clearly.
Contrasting these approaches will provide considerable insight into how much of the signal is based on phylogenetic patterns, and how much on current ecological responses.
According to Chase et al. (2001), the overall biogeography and phylogenetic patterns of Orchidaceae show they are even older and may go back roughly 100 million years.
Viral control efforts can also impact the rate at which virus populations evolve, thereby influencing phylogenetic patterns.
Thus, analysis of phylogenetic patterns gives insight into underlying selective forces.
The analysis did not result in a phylogenetic pattern but rather grouped some birds with similar wing shapes together while others stood separate.
The term white noise is sometimes used in the context of phylogenetically based statistical methods to refer to a lack of phylogenetic pattern in comparative data.
Anatomy is quite characteristically autapomorphic among Passeriformes in general, but a few phylogenetic patterns can be discerned.
Its foot and toe muscles are notably more similar to starlings, at least where no different perching styles have obscured any phylogenetic pattern.
In a diagnostic key, the branching structure of the key should not be mistaken for a phylogenetic or cladistic branching pattern.
