Likewise exclusion of rabbit led to the promotion of a basal position of rodents as in trees 4, 5 and 6.
Other studies have questioned the use of long branch attraction phenomenon as an explanation to a basal position of rodents, because this particular topology received strong support from slowly evolving genes, while fast evolving genes supported Euarchontaglires [43].
From our ML analyses, it seems that the basal position of rodents observed in the three recent phylogenomic studies [ 50- 52] is likely a LBA artefact associated with the use of a reduced taxon sampling and/or inadequate phylogenetic reconstruction methods.
Earlier analyses of mitochondrial protein-coding genes [ 16] and of a combined morphology+DNA dataset [ 17] have also supported a basal (and often paraphyletic) position of rodents, although in [ 16] erinaceids were located at the placental root, adjacent to murid rodents.

Clinically, global peak longitudinal strain (LS) is measured from apical 4-chamber view; however due to the anatomical position of rodent heart, apical 4-chamber view was not feasible; instead global peak LS was measured from anterior basal, mid, and apical and posterior basal, mid, and apical segments of long axis view.
As some of these analyses demonstrated [9], [12], the basal position of the rodents in the mtg tree of placental mammals was sensitive to the sampling of other basal taxa and to the analytical approaches applied.
Our findings suggest that the uncertainty regarding the position of the rodent root reflects the rapid rodent radiation that occurred in the Paleocene rather than the presence of conflicting phylogenetic and non-phylogenetic signals in the dataset.
However, although there is an increase in the third codon position of the rodent Bmp8a/b, the difference is not significant.
We use these DNA sequences to investigate the phylogenetic position of beavers within rodents, date evolutionary events within the extant members of the family Castoridae and explore the substitution rate of their mitochondrial DNA.
Moreover, contrarily to non-clustered oocyte-specific genes, those that are organized in clusters tend to map near chromosome ends, suggesting that this specific near-telomere position of oocyte-clusters in rodents could constitute an evolutionary advantage.
However, disregarding the exact position of Hepatocystis, great ape and rodent parasites were located close together with high support (PP = 0.99, BS = 0.75, Additional file 7, Table S5).
