Search for a 'Tree of Life' in the thicket of the phylogenetic forest Pere Puigbò, Yuri I Wolf, Eugene V Koonin Journal of Biology 2009, 8:59 (13 July 2009) Koonin and colleagues, comparing a forest of 7000 phylogenetic trees, discern vertical inheritance even at the earliest stages of prokaryotic evolution, despite horizontal gene transfer, but the branching order of the earliest radiations may never be resolved.
