4 Phylogenetics: from the origins... From the first growth of the tree, many a limb and branch has decayed and dropped off; and these fallen branches of various sizes may represent those whole orders, families, and genera which have now no living representatives, and which are known to us only in a fossil state. C. Darwin, Notebook, /39
5 Phylogenetics:...to the present phylogenetic trees are part of the standard toolbox of genetic data analysis represent the evolutionary history of a set of (sampled) taxa Bininda-Emonds et al., 2007, Nature. 5/39
