1 Topic 2: Comparative Method o Taxonomy, classification, systematics o Importance of phylogenies o A closer look at systematics o Some key concepts o Parts of a cladogram o Groups and characters o Homology and homoplasy What are taxonomy, classification, and systematics? o The naming of organisms and their categorization o The arrangement of organisms into groups based on trait similarity (justifying the groups) o The clustering of groups and organisms based on a unifying set of principles (evolutionary, or otherwise) How would you taxonomize, classify, and systematize this cutlery? Taxonomy naming of taxa Elk Wrasse Crested Gecko Japalura Monitor Dog Boa Goby Fly Solefugid
2 Classification categorization based on similarity Systematics clustering of taxa based on unifying principles Mammals Fishes Arthropods Squamates What are taxonomy, classification, and systematics? o Taxonomy and classification are used to things o Systematics is used to things Why is systematics important? Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution. - Dobzhansky, 973 The task of systematics is the creation of a general reference system and the investigation of the relations that extend from it to all other possible and necessary systems in biology. - Hennig, 950 (966)
3 What aspects of biology are informed by systematics? Why is systematics important? o Provides a framework for comparing species o Accounts for non- of species o Species pairs spent different amount of time evolving o o
4 Why is systematics important? o Informs about direction of evolution, how species can be compared The Evolution of Fur 2 Species 3 Species Key Concepts of Systematics o The guiding principle of science, stating that the simplest explanation that fits the evidence is most likely the correct explanation Some have it, some don t Fur evolved after scales, scales are, fur is derived A Closer Look at Systematics Key Concepts of Systematics o Systematics The clustering of groups or organisms based on a unifying set of principles (evolutionary, or otherwise) o If the system is based on evolution, then it is o These underlying principles are typically and o An evolutionary branching event, where new taxa arise from a common ancestor o Evolutionary change in a lineage through time (along a branch) Anagenesis Cladogenesis

6 Types of Groups o A group containing an ancestor and all of its descendents. o A group containing some, but not all, of its descendents. o A group containing taxa that lack a common ancestor. o An ancestral feature, common to taxa in the ingroup and outgroup o A shared derived feature, common to clusters of taxa of the ingroup o A unique derived feature, diagnostic of a taxon (OTU) in the ingroup o A character can comprise any quality or quantity that can be compared between the taxa under study o o Morphometrics o o Ecology o o o Allozymes o Karyotype o Protein structure o Etc.
