Dear Netters,
In the late Spring/early Summer, there was an interesting discussion
about picking outgroups for molecular phylogeny studies. I came in late in
the discussion and may have missed some important items. Did anyone cite a
reference(s) during the exchange? If so, would someone send me same, or, if
not, does anyone have a reference(s) regarding this issue (i.e. the diffi-
culties of picking an appropriate outgroup for such studies). As energetic
as this discussion seemed to be, I suspect that similar comments have ap-
peared somewhere in the literature (hopefully in a review).
