To help focus the search for a specific organism, we have organized NPG's papers on RNAi into a "Tree of Life". The categories on our Tree of Life are intended to be representative rather than comprehensive. Papers that focus on a single species can be found in the most exclusive organism page that includes that species: for example, papers on humans will appear on the 'human' page rather than on the 'primates' or 'mammals' page. Papers that contain, utilize or are relevant to multiple species can be found in the set of pages encompassing those species: for example, a paper that compares the processing of miRNAs in human and mouse will appear on both the 'human' and 'rodents' pages. The lower branches of the tree represent organisms for which small RNA regulators are known but not usually included in the RNAi pathway.
