This as well as previous studies support monophyly in Cervinae, while Capreolinae appears paraphyletic. |
The cryptic palatal fold is potentially a synapomorphy supporting the monophyly of the genus Avakubia. |
For comparison, monophyly of angiosperms and spermatophytes is supported by 532 and 631 positions, respectively. |
He pointed out, for example, that the developmental genetic explanation of the prevalence of pentadactyly assumes tetrapod monophyly. |
Their monophyly is undisputed, given the five elongate, stiff mouthpart elements forming a distinctive beak, and an enlarged clypeus. |
Molecular studies support the monophyly of all these taxa as Ecdysozoa, so the term Spiralia is sometimes used as a synonym for the non-molting protostomes, Lophotrochozoa. |
