[edit] What is the source material for this paragraph?
I've moved the following from the article because it lacks reference. It can go back when it is sourced. Thanks.
Luria famously opposed the molecular phylogeny-based tree of life developed by Carl Woese. This conception of evolutionary history, now accepted by the majority of biologists and amply supported by genetic evidence, was nevertheless strenuously, even viciously, opposed when it made its debut. Luria's strident opposition to it is an unfortunate black mark on an otherwise exemplary and noteworthy scientific career.
