I’m not sure if I’m following you correctly. If a non-reactive strain is evolved, by definition it will be unable to establish itself in the plant nodules, and that niche will still be occupied by reactive, symbiosis-capable bacteria. Besid

To determine the three-dimensional structure of proteins (such as the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2) one of the most used techniques is to grow protein crystals and blast X-rays at them. It has been estimated that these crystals have a cost p

mRNA in vaccines doesn’t target anything, but encode the antigens (the spike protein in the case of SARS-CoV-2 ones) that will be used by the host immune system to synthetize the antibodies that will target precisely the same antigen presen

Your assumption is true, but only for rooted phylogenetic trees. In unrooted trees the node representing the most ancestral state is absent and thus no directionality can be determined.
