Reconstructing whole-organism cell phylogenies with resolved ancestral transcriptional states

Combining cell lineage tracing with single-cell RNA sequencing can reconstruct a phylogenetic tree to integrate single-cell transcriptomic atlas.

Combining cell lineage tracing with single-cell RNA sequencing can reconstruct a phylogenetic tree to integrate single-cell transcriptomic atlas. However, the internal nodes of this tree - representing ancestral cells - remain transcriptionally silent, preventing along-lineage…
