Shrnutí	Network-based phylogenetic analysis constructs graph-structured representations of evolutionary relationships that explicitly accommodate reticulate events — including hybridization, horizontal gene transfer, recombination, and incomplete lineage sorting — which strictly bifurcating phylogenetic trees cannot represent. Instead of forcing sequences into a single bifurcating tree, the method infers splits or reticulations in the data and visualises them as a network, revealing conflicting phylogenetic signals that are biologically informative.	Sequence alignment is a foundational bioinformatics technique that arranges two or more DNA, RNA, or protein sequences to reveal regions of similarity, infer evolutionary relationships, identify functional domains, and map sequencing reads to reference genomes. It underpins virtually every downstream genomic analysis, from variant calling and gene expression quantification to phylogenetics and structural annotation.
