On the Use of the Jackknife to Compare R_XY Statistics in Conservation Genomics Research. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Many useful quantities in conservation genomics are point estimates that summarise genetic variation at the population or species level. This presents a challenge to the application of null hypothesis testing frameworks, which require some measure of uncertainty to test the authenticity of measured group differences.

The proper application of logistic regression model in complex survey data: a systematic review [PDF]

BMC Medical Research Methodology
Background Logistic regression is a useful statistical technique commonly used in many fields like healthcare, marketing, or finance to generate insights from binary outcomes (e.g., sick vs. not sick).

Genomic Variation and Population Structure of Portuguese Native Dog Breeds. [PDF]

Anim Genet
ABSTRACT The presence of dogs in Portugal is confirmed by zooarchaeological evidence dating to at least 7600 years ago. The 11 native dog breeds that exist in this territory are therefore the end‐product of a complex evolutionary process. This study characterises the genomic diversity and population structure of 10 native breeds based on whole‐genome ...

Species Distribution Models and Abundance Estimates Enhance Breeding Bird Atlas Data [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Our primary goal was to leverage the large amount of systematic and volunteer‐based data produced by the Minnesota Breeding Bird Atlas to develop species distribution models and population estimates for as many breeding bird species as possible. We utilized three complementary techniques to develop species distribution models and maps for 136 breeding ...

The efficiency of different search strategies in estimating parsimony jackknife, bootstrap, and Bremer support

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2005
Background For parsimony analyses, the most common way to estimate confidence is by resampling plans (nonparametric bootstrap, jackknife), and Bremer support (Decay indices).

Whole‐Genome Sequencing Pilot of the Central Asian Genomic Diversity Project Reveals Distinct Histories, Adaptation, and Introgression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
As a pilot phase of the Central Asian Genomic Diversity Project, whole‐genome sequencing of 166 individuals from 20 Central Asian and Afghan Hazara populations reveals fine‐scale substructure shaped by repeated trans‐Eurasian migration and admixture. Integrated analyses uncover post‐admixture adaptation, archaic introgression, and medically relevant ...

Advancing FAIR phylogenetics for health threats: a systematic review of SARS‐CoV‐2 research and guidelines for future outbreaks

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract During the COVID‐19 pandemic, the need for quick public health action often conflicted with the careful methods required in phylogenetics. To explore this, we reviewed 217 SARS‐CoV‐2 studies published from January 2020 to March 2025 in 121 journals.

California's vernal‐pool mousetails (Myosurus, Ranunculaceae): Phylogenetic analysis of ddRADseq data, hybridization tests, and species delimitation

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
We present the first phylogenetic analysis of the Californian species of Myosurus. Our ddRADseq analysis reveals considerably more diversity than what was recognized in recent floristic treatments. Myosurus minimus subsp. apus was found to be a rare species restricted to Southern California and northwestern Baja California.
