As many bacterial molecular sequences evolve quickly and/or continuously, creating a bacterial phylogenetic tree based on molecular sequences can be difficult.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Bacterial molecular sequences can evolve quickly and/or continuously due to factors such as high mutation rates, horizontal gene transfer, and recombination events. This can make it challenging to create an accurate bacterial phylogenetic tree based on molecular sequences alone. Additional methods, such as comparative genomics and phenotypic analysis, may also be needed for accurate classification and identification of bacterial species.
