Conflict in the tree of life. Although the Open Tree of Life contains only one resolution at any given node, the underlying graph database contains conflict between trees and taxonomy (noting that these figures are conceptual, not a direct visualization of the graph). These two examples highlight ongoing conflict near the base of Eukaryota (A) and Metazoa (B). Images courtesy of PhyloPic (phylopic.org).
