Tempo and mode of modern bird evolution observed with large-scale taxonomic sampling
Article Abstract:
An analysis of the molecules and fossils of various birds is used to deny the theory of the evolutionary history of the birds, given by several macroevolutionists and to support the similarities between the molecular- and fossil-derived times of various events. The study focuses on the time of origin and diversification of the families of a lot many birds and hence helps in the testing of the novel inter-disciplinary hypotheses.
