A tree of geese: A phylogenomic perspective on the evolutionary history of True Geese
Abstract
A molecular phylogeny for the True Geese using an exon-based phylogenomic approach. Gene trees indicate incomplete lineage sorting and hybridization in certain clades. Most speciation events were dated to the late Pliocene and early Pleistocene.
