\title{Molecular Phylogeny of Living Xenarthrans}
\description{
  This phylogeny was inferred by maximum likelihood analysis of the
  nuclear gene BRCA1 (breast cancer susceptibility, 2788 sites)
  sequences for 47 placental and 3 marsupial taxa.
}
\usage{
data(xenarthra)
}
\format{
  The data are stored as an object of class \code{"phylo"} which
  structure is described in the help page of the function
  \code{\link{read.tree}}.
