תקציר	Single-cell phylogenetic analysis reconstructs evolutionary or developmental trees from single-cell sequencing data, tracing how individual cells diverged from a common ancestor. By leveraging somatic mutations, CRISPR-introduced barcodes, or copy-number changes as heritable characters, this method maps clonal relationships within tumors, developing tissues, or immune repertoires with unprecedented cellular resolution.	Phylogenetic analysis reconstructs the evolutionary history of organisms, genes, or proteins by comparing molecular sequence data and estimating the branching tree that best explains observed similarities and differences. Rooted in the work of Felsenstein and colleagues from the 1960s onward, it is a cornerstone technique in evolutionary biology, microbiology, epidemiology, and comparative genomics, supporting tasks from tracing viral outbreak origins to classifying novel species.
