• Comparative anatomyCompared with: Molecular characters offer a distinct line of evidence for testing anatomical hypotheses.

• Molecular clockRelated: Dating adds a temporal dimension to relationships inferred from sequences.

• Fish taxonomyRelated: Sequence comparisons can reveal fish relationships obscured by similar body forms.

• Fungal taxonomyRelated: Sequence comparisons have repeatedly changed the boundaries and placement of fungal groups.

• PhasianidaeRelated: Genetic comparisons have tested traditional classifications based on plumage and anatomy.

• TeleosteiRelated: Sequence-based trees have reshaped hypotheses about relationships among teleost orders.

• Bird taxonomyRelated: Genetic comparisons have reordered many bird groups once classified mainly by appearance.

• Carl WoeseNarrower topic: Woese’s classification made sequence-based phylogeny central to microbial systematics.

• Molecular evolutionBroader topic: It turns sequence comparisons into hypotheses about lineage relationships.

• AfrotheriaRelated: Molecular comparisons first revealed that Afrotheria’s disparate mammals form a shared lineage.

• MycologyRelated: Sequence comparisons have reshaped fungal classification beyond visible traits.
