Evolutionary perspective of the genus Homo: new approaches
No consensus exists in human evolution research regarding the definition of genus Homo and its mode of evolution. Based on a database that comprises more than 350 characters scored on 22 hominin species from Late Miocene to Holocene, we address methodologically these two questions with a quantitati...

| Yhteenveto: | No consensus exists in human evolution research regarding the definition of genus Homo and its mode of evolution. Based on a database that comprises more than 350 characters scored on 22 hominin species from Late Miocene to Holocene, we address methodologically these two questions with a quantitative taxonomic approach that combines Maximum Parsimony (MP) phylogenetic reconstruction with a Phylogenetic Networks method. Based on tree-based MP, we identify three Homo most parsimonious definiti... |
