Congratulations to Casey for publishing the first Chapter of his dissertation in MPE.  Casey used a combination of Sanger and transcriptome data to explore a deep trichotomy in a group of Dyspnoi harvestmen, providing clear advances in the systematics of the group, while also contributing interesting empirical data related to the “concatenation versus deep species tree” controversy.  Thanks also to co-author Cheryl Hayashi for key contributions throughout the data collection, analysis and publication process.
