Stepwise Bayesian Phylogenetic Inference [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Abstract The ideal approach to Bayesian phylogenetic inference is to estimate all parameters of interest jointly in a single hierarchical model. However, this is often not feasible in practice due to the high computational cost that would be incurred.

Phylogenetic relationships of the supercontig of sodium channel subunit I (NaV) in 17 species of Anopheles (Diptera: Culicidae)

open access: yesRevista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2022
Background: Malaria is a global health problem and is transmitted by the Anopheles species. Due to the epidemiological importance of the genus, studies on biological, phylogenetic, and evolutionary aspects have contributed to the understanding of ...

Generalizing Bayesian phylogenetics to infer shared evolutionary events [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2021
Abstract Many processes of biological diversification can simultaneously affect multiple evolutionary lineages. Examples include multiple members of a gene family diverging when a region of a chromosome is duplicated, multiple viral strains diverging at a “super-spreading” event, and a geological event fragmenting whole communities of ...

Bayesian Inference of Reticulate Phylogenies under the Multispecies Network Coalescent. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2016
The multispecies coalescent (MSC) is a statistical framework that models how gene genealogies grow within the branches of a species tree. The field of computational phylogenetics has witnessed an explosion in the development of methods for species tree ...

Quantifying the impact of an inference model in Bayesian phylogenetics [PDF]

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Summary Phylogenetic trees are currently routinely reconstructed from an alignment of character sequences (usually nucleotide sequences). Bayesian tools, such as MrBayes, RevBayes and BEAST2, have gained much popularity over the last decade, as they allow joint estimation of

Using Bayesian Phylogenetics to Infer Manuscript Transmission History

open access: yesDigital Scholarship in the Humanities, 2023
Abstract Bayesian phylogenetic methods offer various models that would be especially suitable in the reconstruction of textual traditions, but text-critical applications of phylogenetics to date have generally not taken advantage of these features. In this paper, we offer a way forward for text-critical phylogenetics.

The enigmatic monotypic crab plover Dromas ardeola is closely related to pratincoles and coursers (Aves, Charadriiformes, Glareolidae)

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2010
The phylogenetic placement of the monotypic crab plover Dromas ardeola (Aves, Charadriiformes) remains controversial. Phylogenetic analysis of anatomical and behavioral traits using phenetic and cladistic methods of tree inference have resulted in ...

Bayesian and maximum likelihood phylogenetic analyses of protein sequence data under relative branch-length differences and model violation

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2005
Background Bayesian phylogenetic inference holds promise as an alternative to maximum likelihood, particularly for large molecular-sequence data sets.

Performance of criteria for selecting evolutionary models in phylogenetics: a comprehensive study based on simulated datasets

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2010
Background Explicit evolutionary models are required in maximum-likelihood and Bayesian inference, the two methods that are overwhelmingly used in phylogenetic studies of DNA sequence data.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the Kyrghyz racerunner (Eremias nikolskii Bedriaga, 1905) from Kyrgyzstan

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2022
The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the Kyrghyz racerunner (Eremias nikoskii Bedriaga, 1905) from Kyrgyzstan was determined for the first time by next-generation sequencing.
