We work extensively on using phylogeny (in diverse ways) as a tool in studies of microbial diversity. Examples of our work in this area include
- Development and application of methods for phylogenetic analysis of rRNA sequences.
- Phylogeny based studies of lateral gene transfer.
- Development and application of methods for phylogenetic analysis of whole genome sequences.
- Development and application of methods for phylogenetic analysis of metagenomic data.
- Phylogeny Driven Selection of Organisms for Genome Sequencing
