EVE 161 at #UCDavis — Lecture 4 recap — 3 or 2 domains of life?

By Jonathan Eisen   Posted in Training and Courses
Posted on January 31, 2014April 13, 2018

Continuing with blog posts about my class EVE 161: DNA sequence based studies of microbial diversity. Lecture 4 was fun and a bit scary for me.  You see, I finally decided to read in detail – and cover in a course in detail –  papers that claim that there are not three domains of life.  Sure …

EVE 161 at #UCDavis — Lecture 3 recap — Woese & Fox and the Tree of Life

By Jonathan Eisen   Posted in Training and Courses
Posted on January 28, 2014April 13, 2018

Continuing with blog posts about my class EVE 161: DNA sequence based studies of microbial diversity  This is the post for Lecture 3 which was the first lecture on what I call “Era I” in DNA sequencing studies of microbes – studies of the Tree of Life.  This lecture focused primarily on Woese’s work on the …
